case strategic risk analyze
(a) Select a company that has some strategic issues. Identify and describe the key strategic risks it is facing and their impacts, and discuss their potential downside
implications. This can be a company you know (if it is your own company, refer to it by an ‘alias’!), one you have read about in a business publication, one you have
Googled, or another source of your choosing. Your selected company needs to be one where you can gather a broad array of information; assuming it is a public company,
its 10k filing with the SEC will be a very productive source of information.
(b) Recommend approaches to mitigate them.
(c) It is possible that the company’s strategy cannot be pursued successfully. Opine on whether its strategy is fundamentally sound or not, and if its risks are
manageable.
Your work will be evaluated on the quality of your:
• Ability to identify key aspects of its strategy and the risks it is or may be potentially exposed to, to recommend approaches to mitigate those risks, and to
determine if the company’s strategy can ultimately be pursued successfully (incorporating a discussion of the manageability of its risks). • Supporting Analysis: You
were able to support your analytical observations and strategic recommendations. • Writing: You were able to communicate your research and analysis in a clear and
concise manner suitable for the defined audience.
