Strategic Management: Suggested Answers for January 25
I would appreciate some guidance on how to format my responses effectively.
The sections highlighted in green align well with the module content. However, I’m unsure about the orange sections. While I can certainly provide a case analysis, I’m curious about how to achieve such specificity in those areas. Any tips? Thank you!

It sounds like you’re looking for guidance on how to improve your answers in strategic management. Here’s a structured approach you can follow:
Understand the Framework: Make sure you have a strong grasp of the strategic management concepts and frameworks discussed in your module. This will help you identify the key components of the analysis that need to be included in your answers.
Use Clear Structure: Organize your answers using a clear structure. For example:
Conclusion: Summarize your main points.
Be Specific: When writing the orange parts of your answers:
Logical Reasoning: Avoid general statements. Instead, connect your analysis to the implications for the organization. Explain why specific actions should be taken based on your assessment.
Practice Critical Thinking: Challenge yourself to ask deeper questions about the case. For instance:
What alternatives exist, and why is a particular choice superior?
Use Templates or Examples: Look for examples or templates of well-structured answers. Analyze how they integrate theory with practical examples, and try to emulate this style in your responses.
Seek Feedback: Don’t hesitate to ask peers or instructors for feedback on your drafts. They can provide insights on how to make your analysis clearer or more specific.
By applying these strategies, you can enhance the specificity and effectiveness of your strategic management answers. Good luck!
