SWOT analysis is a key part of any business and strategic plan. SWOT stands for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. While strengths and weaknesses are internal origin attributes of the organization, opportunities and threats are external origin attributes of the environment. While Strengths and opportunities are helpful to achieve the objectives, weaknesses, and threats are harmful to achieving the objectives.
