SLIB Business Management SL tuition: core units, business-management tools, Paper 1 and 2 practice, IA guidance and exam technique.
Overview
IB Diploma Business Management is organised into five units: introduction to business management, human resource management, finance and accounts, marketing, and operations management. Standard Level (SL) students study the core content of every unit.
A business management toolkit runs through the course, with tools such as SWOT and STEEPLE analysis, Ansoff matrix, decision trees and break-even analysis. Four concepts, change, creativity, ethics and sustainability, link the units together.
Classes are led by Paul William, founder of TutorPOD. Lessons use case-based learning, so every topic is practised on a realistic business, and finance topics are worked through step by step. You get structured notes, revision packages before exams, timed paper practice with personalised feedback, and mentoring for the Business Research Project and Extended Essay.
Classes run live online and in person in Singapore, in small groups or 1-to-1.

The Business Research Project is worth 30% of the SL grade, so a well-chosen research question and strong supporting documents matter a lot.
SL covers the core content of all five units and sits Papers 1 and 2. HL adds extension content and Paper 3, a case study on a social enterprise.
Research the industry and type of organisation it describes, and practise applying the toolkit to it. The full case study is only seen in the exam, so do not try to predict exact questions.
