BUS 687: MBA Capstone




Week Four Journal

The ideas, concepts, and strategies covered in the simulation thus far have been the

SWOT analysis, decision-making, completing a QBR, and how to read and analyze various

statements and charts.These learning aspects can help me progress in my career by becoming

more proficient in business management as a project manager or even a CEO or CFO of a

company. Completing the SWOT analysis at the beginning of the simulation can be used as a

reference throughout the simulation. As decisions are made, the impacts of the SWOT are

noticeable to the company's performance. Lastly, based on that analysis,considering how keeping

track of a companiesSWOTscontinuously may aid in performance improvement.

Reflection of Transferable Learnings

The concepts, ideas, and strategies I have learned thus far are conducting a SWOT

analysis, developing a strategy, creating a budget plan, completing a QBR, and reading/analyzing

various business statements, reports, and charts.At the beginning of the simulation, I was

prompted to conduct a SWOT analysis for the Hisco company. According to Grant (2020),

"SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis is a framework used to

evaluate a company's competitive position and to develop strategic planning. SWOT analysis

assesses internal and external factors, as well as current and future potential" (p. 1). Based on this

definition and the information provided about Hisco, I completed the SWOT analysis, ensuring

that the analysis was also asrealistic, fact-based, and data-drivenas possible.The better the

accuracy of the SWOT, the better its aid in the decision-making process.

Using the SWOT analysis, the company's goals, and objectives, I was prompted to

develop a strategy that will result in an annual net income commitment range of $300k to

$400k.Favaro (2012) stated that a strategy is a devised plan made up of strategic decisions and

actions that are put together to be beneficial to the company in meeting its goals and objectives.

Therefore, I could pull the information gained from the SWOT analysis and Hisco's goals and

objectives and determine what actions and decisions needed to be made to meet the annual net

income commitment of $300k to $400k.
