If you have doubts about some situation, there are tools that might help you. First used in the Stanford Research Institute in the 60s, SWOT analysis is a great solution and if you need to build a strategy, this tool is very effective. As a result, you will get the clear idea of all the opportunities and threats you might face.
This matrix was build for a TOWS analysis performance. A TOWS analysis includes the same process of listing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats as a SWOT analysis. But, unlike SWOT, TOWS analysis primarily takes into account threats and opportunities and then at least - weaknesses and strengths. This is also a is a strategic planning tool. Beyond making a matrix, the strategy manager should investigate ways the organization can take edge of opportunities and reduce threats by turning to advantage strengths and weaknesses. Making SWOT and TOWS analysis uses the same approach and outputs close results. ConceptDraw SWOT and TOWS Matrix Diagrams solution supplies templates of matrices, that help to list clearly the constituents of SWOT and TOWS analysis.
