What is a SWOT Analysis?

A SWOT Analysis supports you in determining the strategy of your company by focussing on 4 elements: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. The SWOT Analysis is easy to use and concise. Of course internal - and external analysis is required to fill in the four quadrants properly. It's recommended to fill in the SWOT Analysis with the Leadership Team. Both the results and the shared process to determine the results are important. In most cases the SWOT Analysis leads to adaption of the strategy. The related activities are included in the roadmap.

What is the layout of the SWOT Analysis canvas?

The SWOT Analysis is performed with a canvas with four quadrants, which are arranged in the following way:

- The top row concerns the internal organization

- The bottom row concerns the environment or context in which the company operates

- The left column concerns the positive side: the strength of the company and the possibilities that exist

- The right column concerns the negative side: the weak sides of the company and the threats that there are (or will be).
