Strategic Management

 

Due to the perception that this subject is exceedingly difficult, the majority of students don't perform well in it. The CA fraternity has a misperception that it is impossible to succeed in the area of strategic management (SM). The problem is that when we are told repeatedly that something is difficult, it inevitably becomes difficult. With the right instruction and practice, you can do well in it if you decide right away that it is simply another topic.

The conventional job of a chartered accountant, which was limited to accounting and auditing, has significantly evolved in the past several years, and there has been a clear shift towards strategic decision-making and entrepreneurial activities that bring value in addition to traditional financial reporting. This demonstrates the significance of strategic management.

 

What textbooks should CA Intermediate Strategic Management students consult?

 

The greatest tools for preparing for the CA Intermediate exams are the Study Materials and additional supplements offered by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Since the Institute itself offers the materials, the questions found in those volumes take on a significant significance in terms of the exam.

Strategic Management might be stressful for some students. Sometimes it's due to the language of the study materials or a lack of proficiency with the English language. This can make it harder for students to perform well on the Strategic Management Paper.

The Institute's Study Material must be used in conjunction with a supplemental book because the subject has many technical features. But picking the appropriate additional reading is also an important consideration. The Practice Manuals are no longer offered by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Instead, the study material itself makes note of the practice questions. However, students should obtain the past Practice Manuals for Strategic Management from the Institute's website because it is filled with questions. By doing this, they can find the ones that apply to their course material and prepare for the tests.

 

Strategic Management’s MCQ’s and case studies

 

The Study Material itself has already specified the Case Scenarios and Multiple-Choice Questions. However, starting with the December 2020 edition, the Institute has issued these Case Scenarios and Multiple-Choice Questions individually. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India's brochure begins by discussing how strategists who are chartered accountants might close the Competence Gap. It explains how dynamic and business-oriented strategic management is. It offers advice to students on how they should approach multiple-choice questions on exams. It concludes by emphasizing the value of preparation for the exam.
