Introduction to strategic and competitive analysis: methods and techniques

 
 
  • Organisation:TFPL
 
 

Companies operate in a competitive environment. In order to evaluate a company's prospects, options and market value, you need to know how the company compares to its competitors. This one-day course will provide an overview of how to conduct a competititve analysis for an industry and a company.  

Competitive analysis is a structured understanding of a business environment, industry, and company. It can be applied in Business-to-Business (B2B) and Business to Consumer (B2C) markets. The output is actionable intelligence which defines implications and provides guidance for decision-making and strategies. It is not repackaged, reclassified data and information. It focuses clearly on answering the questions of "so what"(implications and "now what" (actions). 

Using tools of strategic analysis developed and refined by companies such as GE, consultancies BCG, McKinsey and Booz and business school academics, the instruction is biased toward practical application
