1. After reviewing their SWOT analysis, assuming the role of a manager, what would be one decision you would recommend based on the strategic plan and the SWOT analysis?
2. So I have to wonder...It is possible to apply the SWOT process to a personal evaluation. Why would you want to conduct such an analysis about yourself?
3. Class: Take a moment and conduct a SWOT analysis of the personal side of yourself - a career/work perspective and/or a personal/family/religious perspective. What are your major strengths? What are your major weaknesses? What are the major external opportunities for you given your strengths? How about the major external threats that might prevent you from pursuing the applicable opportunities?
4. Class: How can a company ensure that their in-house SWOT analysis is unbiased?
5. Do you think it's important for a company spend time to evaluate if a goal unmet is a failure or an opportunity to capitalize?
