How does SWOT Analysis help in understanding a company's position in the competitive landscape?

SWOT Analysis helps in understanding a company's position in the competitive landscape by identifying its Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. Strengths and Weaknesses are internal factors that give insight into the company's capabilities and areas for improvement. Opportunities and Threats, on the other hand, are external factors that highlight the potential areas for growth and the external risks that the company might face. By understanding these four aspects, a company can strategize effectively to leverage its strengths, address its weaknesses, capitalize on opportunities, and mitigate threats.
