Evaluating an Organization’s Opportunities and Threats
Whereas evaluating strengths and weaknesses focuses attention on the internal workings
of an organization, evaluating opportunities and threats requires analyzing an organiza-
tion’s environment.
Organizational opportunities
are areas that may generate higher
performance.
Organizational threats
are areas that increase the difficulty of an organi-
zation performing at a high level.

A number of frameworks have been developed for identifying the major strategic alter-
natives that organizations should consider when choosing their business-level strategies.
Two of the most important ones are Porter’s generic strategies and strategies based on
the product life cycle.
