This book presents a fresh analysis of a series of real business cases from Mexico, examining how organizations of different sizes—from small businesses to large corporations—identified opportunities for improvement and developed strategies to address their unique challenges from their earliest stages.
Among the featured cases are Tequila Don Ramón, the resurgence of the Mexican wine industry, road concession operators, and the future of industrial waste commercialization. Although each case comes from a different industry, they all explore opportunities, risks, and strategic decision-making with the goal of encouraging deeper reflection and discussion among business leaders, students, and academics.
