Case Scenario:
Conduct strategic analyses of Whole Foods Market and provide an independent, objective view of Whole Foods Market's current strategic position, including full information of Whole Foods Market's mission, vision and values. Identify its current set of strategic goals, and a critical assessment of the competition and the competitive environment (remote and operating environments). In addition, highlight the opportunities and threats Whole Foods is presently facing, and give the executive of Whole Food Market a general idea of the company's strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, Whole Food wants to know if they should make any strategic changes or continue with the status quo. Synthesize everything you have learned, provide a final recommendation, and justify your reasoning. Furthermore, identify a minimum of three of the top competitive companies and their best-selling services or products - and justify why each is a viable competitor to Whole Foods.
