That's true. So, the missing stage must be the external analysis to fully assess the business environment.

No, I don't think so. The question specifically mentions that the organisation has defined what it is seeking to achieve and identified strengths and weaknesses.

But what about identifying strategic options? Could that be the stage that the organisation missed?

Yes, I agree. Without understanding the external environment, it would be difficult to make informed strategic choices.

I see your point Jerry, but without knowing the external factors, how can the organisation make the right strategic choices?

But isn't identifying strategic options also crucial in the strategic analysis process?

Hmm, I don't know. I'm a little hesitant about option B because the question says they're at the stage of 'completing' their strategic analysis, which suggests they've already identified their strategic options.

Good point. It could be that they've done the external analysis but haven't yet identified the different strategic options available to them.

I agree, but what about option B? Identifying strategic options is also an important step that the question doesn't mention they've completed.

You know, I was thinking the same thing. An external analysis, like looking at industry trends, competitors, and market conditions, is a crucial part of strategic analysis that they seem to be missing here.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option A. The question mentions that the organization has done a 'corporate appraisal,' which suggests they've looked at their internal strengths and weaknesses, but it doesn't seem like they've done an external analysis of their business environment.

This is a tricky question! I'm not sure if I have a clear idea of the right answer just yet. Let's discuss this and see if we can figure it out together.
