Select an article published in a quality newspaper during the past month that can be identified as relating to a focused, contemporary external strategic environment (in nature this could be political, economic, demographic, social, technological, environmental, legal etc). Use this as the starting point for a strategic analysis of that identified environment, viewed from the perspective of two relevant organizations. What are the strategic implications of what is being reported in the article? What is the wider context in terms of trends, drivers and prevalent discourse? What are the considerations for the industry as a whole and the organisations you have selected to focus on?
