Before the core period, the START Module sets students up for an intense academic experience and establishes the knowledge and skills necessary for the successful completion of the program. It combines seminars and workshops with a great chance to socialize, build relationships with classmates, and to get a feel for IE Business School. During the core period you will review management fundamentals and gain a deeper understanding of the most up-to-date core management principles, which will be common to all students of your intake. Most areas of management are studied using practical cases, which either deal with real or fictitious problems that may arise in different company contexts, and are analyzed from global or national perspectives.

  • Ebay's 2018 Annual Report
    To our stockholders, As the Board Chairman, I continue to be proud of the meaningful impact eBay makes around the globe. With every buyer we delight and every seller we empower, we manifest our belief that technology and commerce can be forces for good. As I reflect on 2018, I see an eBay that is evolving to strengthen its business for the next 25 years. In 2018, we grew our active buyer base to 179 million, drove $95 billion in Global Merchandise Volume (GMV) and delivered record earnings. As evidence of our leaders’ continued confidence in eBay’s future, we returned $4.5 billion of capital to shareholders through the repurchase of common stock. I’m deeply proud of the decisions our Board and leadership team made in response to the challenges of positioning an established yet dynamic and innovative technology business to thrive over the long term. We made investments that set up the company for future success, focusing people and resources on our priority initiatives: buyer growth, conversion, payments and advertising. And we adjusted revenue and GMV expectations accordingly. As we shape eBay, I feel fortunate to work with such a stellar and diverse cross-section of leaders. On behalf of the entire Board, thank you for your ongoing support of eBay and our mission. With your help, we’ll continue to galvanize inspiration and economic opportunity around the world. Thomas Tierney Chairman of the Board To Our Stockholders, The past year has brought remarkable challenges and opportunities for both the technology industry and for eBay. It was a year of reckoning for many consumer tech companies, with a breakout of societal issues around privacy, trust, trade and immigration.

  • Comparative Experimental Evidence on Compliance with Social Distancing During the COVID-19 Pandemic†
    Comparative experimental evidence on compliance with social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic† Michael Bechera Daniel Stegmuellerb Sylvain Brouardc Eric Kerrouchec This version: July 14, 2020 Abstract Social distancing is a central public health measure in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, but individuals’ compliance cannot be taken for granted. We use a survey experiment to examine the prevalence of non-compliance with social distancing in nine countries and test pre-registered hypotheses about individual-level characteristics associated with less social distancing. Leveraging a list experiment to control for social desirability bias, we find large cross-national variation in adherence to social distancing guidelines. Compliance varies systematically with COVID-19 fatalities and the strictness of lockdown measures. We also find substantial heterogeneity in the role of individual-level predictors. While there is an ideological gap in social distancing in the US and New Zealand, this is not the case in European countries. Taken together, our results suggest caution when trying to model pandemic health policies on other countries’ experiences. Behavioral interventions targeted towards specific demographics that work in one context might fail in another. Author contributions: M.B., S.B. and D.S. conceived the study, designed the experiment, analyzed the data and wrote the paper. E.K. provided additional funding. †For comments and suggestions, we are grateful to participants in (virtual) seminars at IAST, Berlin Social Science Center (WZB), and IE University. Stefan Preuß provided excellent research assistance. Becher acknowledges IAST funding from the French National Research Agency (ANR) under the Investments for the Future (Investissements d’Avenir) program, grant ANR-17-EURE-0010.
