Strategic Analysis involves examining both the internal and external environments of an organization to craft informed strategies. It provides decision-makers with insights into the organization's current position while helping forecast future challenges and opportunities.

This presentation examines the Four Corners Analysis framework, a strategic tool developed by renowned business strategist Michael Porter. Designed to predict competitor actions and responses in various market conditions, the model goes beyond exploring a competitor's current strategy and capabilities by also evaluating the underlying motivations driving their behavior.

The Four Corners Analysis model centers on 2 key competitor dimensions—Motivations and Actions—which divide the framework into 4 quadrants (or "corners"):

1. Drivers – Drivers represent the internal and external factors that shape a competitor's strategic objectives and influence their market behavior. These factors include elements such as the company's mission, vision, goals, culture, leadership style, market ambitions, market trends, and the regulatory environment.

2. Management Assumptions – This quadrant helps assess a competitors' assumptions about the industry's strengths and weaknesses in relation to their own, while identifying potential blind spots and prejudices.

3. Strategy – By examining a competitor's Strategy, organizations can gain valuable insights into how rivals are positioning themselves, the choices they are making, and the actions they are likely to pursue.

4. Capabilities – This section evaluates the rivals' strengths, weaknesses, processes, people, resources, and skills, providing insight into how they leverage these assets to achieve their strategic objectives.

By systematically examining these 4 components, organizations can generate more accurate and realistic predictions of a competitor's likely course of action. This PPT digs deeper into each these 4 corners.

The slide deck also outlines the key phases and steps for implementing the framework, supplemented with a real-world case study to demonstrate its practical application.
