This month’s session will start with a short workshop on SWOT analysis, a tool commonly taught in business school to examine internal strengths and weaknesses as well as external opportunities and threats. It was originally conceived to help corporations formulate high-level business strategy, but it has proven useful in a broad range of situations. SWOT is an excellent tool for evaluating business opportunities such as starting a new business, entering a new market, pursuing a new development project, or allocating resources in areas such as recruiting or training.

This workshop will teach you how to do a basic SWOT analysis, using your own career situation as a practical application. You will learn a valuable analytic tool and gain new insight into your own professional potential.

After the workshop comes a facilitated discussion where participants can share challenges that they are facing and get feedback, ideas, and support from the group. The event is free and pizza will be provided. Come out, join the discussion, and become a better manager.

This time around we will meet on Wednesday night, August 22nd in San Mateo.

Arrivals and free pizza 7:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Program starts at 7:30 PM
