Pre-reading issues
Does the work of a company depend on any internal or external factors?
Name some factors that can influence the company’s performance.
Should a company’s top management busy themselves with working out the company’s strategy? Why?
Swot analysis
The particular process that is commonly used in strategic planning is an analysis of the company’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, also known as the SWOT analysis.
Strengths and weaknesses are factors that exist within the organization. The strengths tend to be easier to list than the weaknesses as everyone wants to claim that they contribute to the organization.
Threats and opportunities exist outside the organization. The term “opportunity” refers to those factors outside the organization that are favorable to the organization. The threats are those factors outside the organization that are not good news for the company.
What the company chooses to do with that information depends on what gets stated in the other categories. What is important to realize is that potential future directions for the organization are not identified at this stage – that comes a bit later.
Once the SWOT is concluded, there are four strategies to choose from in order to guide future directions: 1) growth, 2) stability, 3) retrenchment and 4) combination.
Growth means exactly that the organization is going to grow in some way.
A stability strategy means that the company is going to maintain the status quo. They are going to continue what they have been doing up till now. Nothing is going to change. No increase in production, no new markets, no growth in the number of employees.
Retrenchment means that somehow the company will be cutting back. That could include selling off some assets, reducing the number of products that they sell or getting out of some countries in which they now operate.
A combination strategy is more common with a large, multi-divisional company. With a combination strategy, one division of the company will pursue one strategy while another division follows another strategy.
The strategies outlined flow directly out of the SWOT analysis. Done correctly, the strategies and the SWOT analysis form a great package.
(From: Susan Quinn. Management Basics)
