Problem 1: Discuss Skype's strategy and determine which one of Porter's competitive strategies fits with this strategy. Review Skype's inputs and determine one or two specific critical inputs from each input category: environment, resources, and history.
Problem 2: Then identify the most critical inputs in each of the three categories and justify why they are critical. Also explain what effect the inputs from one category have on inputs from the other categories. How well does the strategy fit with the environmental, resource and historical inputs you identified?
Problem 3: Explain how the Key Inputs support (are congruent with) the Strategy. Specifically make a claim: "The inputs at Skype consisting of Organizational Environment factors. Internal Resource factors, and Historical Tradition factors are, [highly, partially, or minimally] congruent with the company's strategy."
