- Flag 5-7 threats (assess probability and impact)
- Cross-reference analysis for strategic insights:
- How do we leverage strengths to capture opportunities?
- How do we shore up weaknesses to mitigate threats?
- Which opportunities can overcome weaknesses?
- Which threats could exploit weaknesses?
- Develop 3-5 strategic recommendations
