Assessing organizational resources,
capabilities, and activities:
• Strengths create value for the
customer and strengthen the
competitive position of the firm.
• Weaknesses can place the firm
at a competitive disadvantage.
Analyzing financial and physical
assets is fairly easy, but assessing
intangible assets (employee’s
skills, culture, corporate reputation,
and so forth) isn’t as easy.

Opportunities

strategy describes how it will compete in its primary or main
market.

competitive advantage, the products or services it will offer, the
customers it wants to reach, and the like.

- 35. The Role of Competitive Advantage
1. Competitive Advantage sets an organization’s distinctive

competencies because the organization does something that
others cannot do or does it better than others can do it.

core competencies that enable an organization to keep its edge
over its industry competitors.
• It is not easy to create a sustainable competitive advantage due
to market instabilities, new technology, and other changes.

their organizations to get a sustainable competitive advantage.
