1. Identify and describe the degree to which IKEA's strategic plan combines its internal and distinctive strengths with external (market) opportunities (that is, an "SO" sub-strategy), as well as how it combines its internal and distinctive strengths with any external threats identified in the plan (that is, an "ST" sub-strategy). Both sub-strategies should be unique, and independent strategies, not just a simple combination of a "strength" with an "opportunity" or a "strength" with a "threat".Describe an actual strategy that combines the two.
2. In addition, describe any resources presented in the plan that could be needed to support each sub-strategy.
3. Describe how these sub strategies might be evaluated as either succeeding or failing. That is, includeperformance benchmarksfor each sub strategy.
