Critique and Recommendations
Submit the long-term objectives/goals that you have found from doing research on your Fortune business/organization. These are long-term objectives, not short-term goals, and they must be specific and well defined. Hint: Use the mission/vision statements as a guide and consult the textbook for assistance. The goals and objectives should be long term–a minimum of 3-5 years into the future. Most importantly the goals/objectives need to be measurable; that is, numbers such as sale growth, investment return to shareholders in percent, market share in percent, etc. You may have to do lots of research to find the actual goals/objectives. A good place to check is the annual report for the Fortune 500 Company.

Provide a SWOT matrix analysis of the opportunities, threats, strengths, and weaknesses for your Fortune business in the proper format. Label, list and discuss the SWOT factors separately for each project. You do not need to provide sub-strategies for each part of the matrix. Later you will be doing an overall organizational strategy. To be acceptable it must be in the proper format with summarized factors.

Provide me with the strategy or strategies that you have identified for your Fortune 500 project. Bold the strategy and then discuss the strategy. Have a separate section for each strategy. Refer to chapter 5 for the different types of strategies. You must read chapter 5 before submitting this assignment

Please read instructions above about critique section.

Note: Minimum of 5 Sources. Use books, peer reviewed journals and wall street journal
