Here’s a brief overview and introduction to such a course: The course begins by introducing the concept of a strategic audit, explaining its importance in contemporary business practice. Participants are taught various analytical tools and techniques, such as SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats), PESTEL analysis (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, Legal), and Porter’s Five Forces.
