Growth Strategies (SO)

Growth strategy

Add a growth strategy

Add a consolidation strategy

Review each of the highest-ranked strengths facing your organization, and compare them with each of the highest-ranked threats.


For example, if you have recognized specialist knowledge that gives you an advantage, but there is a threat that new technology could decrease your market, then it would make sense to develop the same level of specialist knowledge in new technologies.

Containment strategies (WO)

Add a containment strategy

Review each of the highest-ranked weaknesses facing your organization, and compare them with each of the highest-ranked opportunities.


For example, if there is unmet demand in the market, but you have old and slow production equipment, then you cannot take advantage of this opportunity. A containment strategy would be to improve capacity with newer equipment.

Survival strategies (WT)

Survival strategy

Add a survival strategy

Review each of the highest-ranked weaknesses facing your organization, and compare them with each of the highest-ranked threats.
