Ch. 5 Analysis

This assignment will be applying the concepts related to performing a SWOT analysis and creating strategic goals employing the SWOT information. Using the information in the Wal-Mart SWOT information attachment, complete Question 1 & 2 placing the Wal-Mart information into the proper categories.  Remember Strengths and Weaknesses are inside the company and Opportunities and Threats are outside the company. Place each of the items listed into one of the four categories. 

Once you have categorized the information proceed to the remaining questions creating a strategic long term goal pairing a strength with an opportunity and then pairing a weakness to eliminate a threat.  The remaining questions involve identifying a corporate and then business strategy for Wal-Mart.
