In the research I've done in preparation for the SWOT exercise, I found multiple sources that discuss the internal nature of the Strengths and Weaknesses sections compared to the more external nature of the Opportunities and Threats. This seems to jive with what the authors of your article were getting at. It begs the question of just how important the strengths and weaknesses sections even are in terms of intelligence purposes which deal almost exclusively with external factors? My first impulse is to say something along the lines of the value of knowing oneself (or one's business) before looking outward. <br />Eric S.

It does only measure 4 things.
