The Ansoff Matrix
A short video (6 mins) outlining the Ansoff matrix and includes some examples to illustrate application of the matrix
Although the examples are dated, it is the principle of application that is important here

In groups, for the organisation Apple Inc, identify one potential strategic idea for each of the following (if time permits):
