External Environment Analysis Table
This is a simple table that you can complete for each of the
environmental factors based on the relevant
theory, describing what is currently going on in your market and
then what this means for your product
or service.
External Environment Analysis Table
Remember that with the word count, what you put in these
tables does not count to your total word
count. So, you can do a thorough analysis using this table
template and provide a more succinct
introduction and summary of your analysis in the main body of
the report. It is also a preference for
any tables to be included at the appropriate position in the
report rather than being attached as an
20. Appendix. This will help with the flow of your report by not
forcing the reader to flick back and forth
throughout the report.
Feedback
Feedback will be provided in the form of a mark, Rubric and
written comments.
