Actual exam question for IMANET's CMA exam
Question #: 57
Topic #: 3
[All CMA Questions]

A strategic group analysis does all but which of the following?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Decentralization results in greater speed in making operating decisions because they are made by lower-level managers instead of being referred to top management. The quality of operating decisions should also be enhanced, assuming proper training of managers, because those closest to the problems should be the most knowledgeable about them.

Wait, does it really forecast future actions? Sounds sketchy.

I've got this one! Strategic group analysis is all about understanding the competitive landscape, not making predictions about the future. The answer that doesn't fit is B.

Okay, let me think this through. A strategic group analysis looks at mobility barriers, compares the firm to competitors, and predicts reactions, but it doesn't actually forecast future group actions and trends. I think the answer is B.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know strategic group analysis looks at industry competitors, but I'm not totally clear on what it doesn't do compared to the other options.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this. I know SELinux is important for security, but I'm not super familiar with the different modes. I'll have to read through the explanation carefully.

Wait, isn't strategic group analysis like the corporate version of 'spot the differences' between competitors? If so, I'd say C is the odd one out.
