Assignment 4.3 

A concept called a SWOT analysis is often used to evaluate the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats impacting an organization. 

• Strengths:  Characteristics of the organization that give it an advantage over others
• Weaknesses:  Characteristics of the organization that place it at a disadvantage relative to others
• Opportunities:  Elements that the organization could exploit to its advantage.
• Threats: Elements in the environment that could cause trouble for the organization

Strengths and Weaknesses are often internal, while Opportunities and Threats are often external.  A SWOT analysis can also be a valuable tool to help organizations determine existing and future funding needs.   Consider your identified organization and list at least 3 examples of each of these four categories.  Include a minimum of three resources, including at least one resource that helped you understand the SWOT analysis.  There is a big difference between a SWOT analysis for a for-profit business and a nonprofit organization, so be sure your resources are relevant.  Submit a 4-6 page paper, APA format. 

A summary document has been provided to help with this concept.  DO NOT use it as one of your resources.
