On the 24th October 2019, Life and Business Coach Eric Gilston was back at Fashion-Enter HQ to advise masterclass attendees on ‘How to Raise Your Game.’
Eric explained SWOT and how useful it is to apply whenever you have a decision to make. For those that don’t know SWOT stands for:
S = Strengths,
W = Weaknesses,
O = Opportunities
T = Threats.
The abbreviated version of this is where people look at the pluses and minuses, the strengths and the weaknesses, the good points and the bad points, etc. However, SWOT is much more powerful as it includes Opportunities and Threats, where you look at external factors that can play a role.
Eric advises that this technique is so powerful it can be used for major life decisions as well as within the workplace. In the world of fashion, there are numerous occasions, each & every day, when key decisions are being made. Being in a competitive business world the right decisions are key and this technique can help make those crucial choices.
