Hi EAGLs!

First, a quick shout-out to Alla for being in the Q&A session this morning. We had a good discussion of the first two strategy readings and the strategy preamble video. The recording of our conversation is here:

This week, there is only 1 reading. It is called “Competitive Advantage & Internal Organizational Assessment” and it is under the Situation Analysis in the Strategy Library. It incorporates a traditional SWOT analysis with a value chain assessment. It’s another “oldie but goodie.”

But before you take off reading this article, I want you to watch the following videos — one talks about analyzing the internal capabilities of our company and the other looks outside the firm at the driving forces impacting our businesses. The links are below.

Those of you who did not make it this morning, feel free to reach out with any comments or questions simply by replying to this forum post.

Have a great weekend!

Charlie
