7. Analysis of Current Circumstance:
Where are we now?
)
S.W.O.T. (Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats), was
developed in the 1970’s and popular ever since.
SWOT is an extremely useful tool for strategically planning the future. It
groups information into lumps so that it can be examined more closely
and systematically. The goal is to isolate key issues that will later be re-
examined for closer consideration.
SWOT is a simple, but a powerful business planning tool. It can assist a
co-op to concentrate on what makes it strong, position a co-op to reduce
threats, and hopefully leverage unseen opportunities.
Cooperative businesses operate in a changing and dynamic world,
SWOT is a technique used by managers to quickly make better-informed
decisions in this environment.

more committed to the plan’s (organization’s) success.
