Discussion Post Porter’s Five Forces and Strategy

The discussion this week is based on two articles from Harvard Business Review: “What Is Strategy?” and “The Five Competitive Forces That Shape Strategy.” These articles and the questions that follow will inform your thought process as you work through the remaining project. 

How do you see Porter’s five forces affecting your company’s financial strategy for being competitive in the marketplace? How do the same five forces affect your projections and ideas for future business opportunities?
