  • Strengths: What does CCRI do well? How do you know it is being done well?
  • Weaknesses: In what areas does CCRI need to improve? How much improvement is needed?
  • Opportunities: Are there circumstances in the marketplace that CCRI can benefit from or take advantage of?
  • Threats: What external factors are standing in the way or blocking CCRI from making forward progress?
  • What is the greatest challenge facing CCRI

After 20 minutes, pass your sheet to another table

  • Build upon the other tables responses. Add any new thoughts or statements to the list

Prior to end of session, review the list and check what you believe are the three most significant statements or responses in each SWOT category.
