Support for MG206 Firms, Management and Competitive Advantage at LSE

Our tutoring for MG206 is designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through case studies, essays, presentations and exam preparation, and developing a clearer strategy for revision and assessed work. The aim is to help students understand the module deeply enough to apply the material independently, not just memorise model answers.

Common Challenges

Students often struggle with:

  • understanding the relationship between theories of the firm and competitive advantage and knowing when each framework is useful
  • applying innovation to case studies and using organisational capabilities to build an analytical argument
  • supporting conclusions with evidence rather than simply describing frameworks
  • building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative
