  • When a Short Seller Came for Samsonite Over Accounting Flaws

    When a Short Seller Came for Samsonite Over Accounting Flaws
    10 Nov 2026
    In May 2018, the world’s largest luggage maker Samsonite had just acquired a well-regarded luxury brand, and its stock traded at record highs. However, short seller Blue Orca Capital released a scathing report targeting Samsonite, believing it had uncovered flawed accounting, hidden conflicts, shaky governance, and perhaps outright fraud. CEO Ramesh Tainwala resigned amid accusations that he had faked a doctorate degree, but Samsonite pushed back against the other allegations. Harvard Business School professor Aiyesha Dey and host Brian Kenny discuss Samsonite’s accounting policies, how it navigated short seller Blue Orca Capital’s investigation, and what investors, managers, and students can learn in the case studies: Samsonite: Accounting Baggage?; Samsonite: The Short Seller’s Case; and Samsonite: The Rebuttal.

    How the CEO of Rolls-Royce Turned an Underperforming Company Around
    27 Oct 2026
    In early 2023, Tufan Erginbilgiç took over as CEO of the U.K.’s legendary jet engine and power systems giant Rolls-Royce. Despite its legacy and a culture steeped in engineering brilliance, Rolls-Royce had underperformed for more than a decade. Erginbilgiç endeavors to develop a transformation playbook, combining its engineering-focused heritage with a high performing mindset and sets Rolls-Royce on the road to financial and operational health. Has Erginbilgiç’s leadership style and transformation taken hold enough for a new Rolls-Royce to thrive? Harvard Business School professor and former dean Nitin Nohria and host Brian Kenny discuss the case “Tufan Erginbilgiç at Rolls-Royce,” and interconnected ideas from Nohria’s new book, The CEO: The Role, The Reality, The Responsibility.

  • Restructuring Mobile Game Giant Supercell for a Turnaround

    Restructuring Mobile Game Giant Supercell for a Turnaround
    13 Oct 2026
    Founded in 2010, Supercell was a Finland-based mobile gaming company that had developed and launched five global hit mobile games. The company’s early philosophy was that it could produce hits by designing the company to appeal to top talent: Developers worked in small, autonomous groups called cells with little oversight. The formula was an initial success but the streak of hit games eventually ended. By 2023, CEO Ilkka Paananen and the company’s leadership team decided to restructure the company but wondered if they could still attract top talent despite its shift to more traditional ways of managing the business. Senior Lecturer Jeffrey Rayport and host Brian Kenny discuss the case, “Supercell 2.0: Clash of Plans,” and the question at its crux: What would it take to restore the company's winning streak?
