“Become addicted to constant and never-ending self-improvement.” ~ Anthony J. D’Angelo
SWOT is an acronym for ‘Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threat’ and its analysis is widely used in the corporate world to evaluate the position of a company. However, a SWOT analysis can also be applied to evaluate your personal self with the aim of self-improvement and pursuing career goals.
How is this done?
By analyzing all the steps and considerations that must be taken to realize your own self. For this, you need to honestly answer questions about yourself within the SWOT framework. If you feel you cannot be objective about yourself then take the help of a friend or a colleague.
Remember, you are more likely to succeed in life if you are able to exploit your talents to the fullest. You will also face fewer problems if you are aware of your weaknesses and how you can manage them so that they wouldn’t matter in the long-term.
A SWOT analysis can also uncover new opportunities for you and help you eliminate any threats that could hamper your progress.
Here are the following questions you should ask yourself:
Strengths
|
Weaknesses
|
|---|---|
Opportunities
|
Threats
|
Outcome and Action
You can determine the outcome of your analysis by matching the strengths with the opportunities, and weaknesses with threats. This is turn will transform into action in those areas where you feel you can be more aggressive to get more positive results. You will also be able to convert your negatives into positives and evaluate what steps you need to take and what skills you need to gain to gain the competitive edge.
For instance, if you think that your English or public speaking skills are not developed enough, then you can enroll in a Pep Talk India course to turn your weakness into a strength and an opportunity! All the best!
