• 3 key organization strengths and the role they play in identifying and building upon 3 key opportunities that fit your organization’s overall strategy
• An analysis of the following:

• Potential leverage points that will help your organization build on a strength(s) to take advantage of strategic opportunities
• A description of how chaos theory applies to your strategic opportunities
