Issue Analysis: Strategic Positioning

With strategy becoming increasingly important for organizations and businesspersons, especially in times of crisis, it is vital that business professionals and analysts clearly understand the issues facing them, their impact as well as implications for wider society.

Your role in this assignment is to analyze an issue specific to a business related to strategy. You can choose either a specific business or a business in general. This can be either an internal issue $($i$.$e$.$ how to develop strategic dashboards$)$ or external $($i$.$e$.$ how to deal with climate change$)$ and in some cases it may be both.

The objectives of this assignment are:

Outline a knowledge base that can give you a broad idea of strategic management.

Examine the knowledge base of strategic management.

Critique as to why issues are likely to be the most important from a strategic management and analytical perspective.

Differentiate the knowledge base in a way that can assist strategic decisionmaking and organization analysis.

To achieve these objectives, you will produce an individual report. The report must contain results of an analysis on an issue with an individual company or industry that you have conducted.
