BSS508-6 | Report on a Contemporary External Strategic Environment | Management

What am I required to do in this assignment?Select an article published in a quality newspaper during the past month that can be identified as relating to a focused, contemporary external strategic environment (in nature this could be political, economic, demographic, social, technological, environmental, legal etc). Use this as the starting point for a strategic analysis of that identified environment, viewed from the perspective of two relevant organizations.  What are the strategic implications of what is being reported in the article? What is the wider context in terms of trends, drivers and prevalent discourse?  What are the considerations for the industry as a whole and the organizations you have selected to focus on?Compare and contrast the position of these two organizations in terms of the strategic environment and evaluate the opportunities and threats it presents.  What do I need to do to pass? (Threshold Expectations from UIF)Collect and critically analyze, to an acceptable level, relevant data to identify and analyze the given strategic environment from the perspective of a real firm Select and apply relevant strategic frameworks or approaches to generate critical insights relevant to the organization. How do I produce high-quality work that merits a good grade?Justify the selection of the article and articulate clearly the strategic environment identified.
