Editor's Notes
Most - will know what SWOT is Many - done one as part of Business Plan Some - may not be familiar. Don't want to patronise Don't want to assume knowledge Do want to create learning environment for us all, share understanding.
ITSM – Information Technology Service Management Means Mick is accredited to manage businesses operational management systems
Simple, powerful framework. Helps you focus on strengths and minimise threats
For those of you whose preferred learning style is visual rather than audial
Key factors – Strengths and weaknesses are usually your Internal factors – what is going on inside your business Opportunities and Threats are you External factors – what is going on outside your business Strengths and Opportunities relate to positive factors Weaknesses and Threats relate to negative factors
Often helpful to do a PEST analysis before doing a SWOT analysis – looking at broader factors
Be brave – celebrate your strengths, but be brutally frank about where your could be better – this is NOT an academic exercise Don’t be sucked into a false optimism or the depths of depression on the basis of your current situation. This tool is intended to help you plan for your future Try to avoid phrases like “I want to be the best” or “We could be better at…” – be specific in what you want and what you need – again, brutal honesty is required It’s not always possible or realistic, but try to base the analysis of your business on how you compare to your direct competitors. How will you be better, cheaper, quicker than them? For the sake of your and your staff’s sanity, keep this process manageable. Again, remember that it’s not an academic exercise – you need to set realistic timeframes as well as goals Look for what makes you different, unique. Think back to your start-up days - why you believed you could succeed where others have failed. What are your USP’s?
Often helpful to do a PEST analysis before doing a SWOT analysis – looking at broader factors Particularly useful for large businesses to gain a vision for the future of the industry Useful when starting operating in a new country or area and for determining the continuing principal viability of your business
Useful for assessing the nature of competition of an industry. Porter explains that there are five forces that determine industry attractiveness and long-run industry profitability. These five "competitive forces" are: - 1. The threat of entry of new competitors (new entrants) – how will that affect your profitability and customer base? - 2. The degree / intensity of rivalry between existing competitors – how do you see new entrants into your market – as rivals or colleagues who can increase volume? - 3. The threat of substitutes (e.g. cowboy competitors) – how will they affect the value of your market? Are there opportunities for you to differentiate and so increase your profile? - 4. The bargaining power of suppliers – the more there are, the less power they have – have you actively looked for alternative suppliers? - 5. The bargaining power of buyers – the more competitors you have, the greater the bargaining power of your buyers (customers) – look for that USP and look at your competitors so you can effectively become a sole supplier again
