SWOT Analysis
SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis is a framework used to evaluate a community or organization and to develop strategic planning. SWOT analysis assesses internal and external factors,
as well as current and future potential.
A SWOT analysis is designed to facilitate a realistic, fact-based, data-driven look at the strengths and weaknesses of an organization, its initiatives, or an industry. The organization needs to keep the analysis accurate by avoiding pre-conceived beliefs or gray areas and instead focusing on real-life contexts. Organizations should use it as a guide and not necessarily as a prescription.
Strategic Planning
Strategic economic development plans are integral to achieving sustainable and measurable economic growth, as well as quality of place.
With a formal plan, communities and organizations can take control of their economic development, set clear and attainable economic development objectives, and design policies and programs to achieve them. Without one, your economic future is reactive at best. At worst, it’s in the hands of others.
