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.
