 What I Need to Know

Hello dear students! Job well done in the previous module. Are you ready for the next
learning?

Our world is full of problems that people think what would be the solutions on these
problems. Being a strategic thinker or an intuitive thinker helps to create solutions
for achieving goals and solve problems in our home, school, government, community
and other institutions. Let’s help our government to have a better community.

The module is divided into four lessons, namely:

 Lesson 1 – Strategic Analysis and Intuitive Thinking
 Lesson 2 – Key Components of Strategic Analysis
 Lesson 3- Apply Strategic Analysis
 Lesson 4- Creative Solutions using Intuitive Thinking

After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. Explain strategic analysis and intuitive thinking
 Define strategic analysis and intuitive thinking
 Differentiate the key components in strategic analysis and intuitive
thinking
2. Apply strategic analysis
3. Apply intuitive thinking in solving a problem in the community using a map
of social network.

 What is It

Applying Strategic Analysis

Strategy is important in solving problem. Being strategic means you are logical.
Applying strategic analysis will help a community or an organization. It takes time
to create solution because of there are steps and processes to be followed.
One of the component of strategic analyses is the use of tool analysis or the
different methods to identify and address the threats and problems. The two common
tool analyses used are the SWOT analysis and the PEST analysis.

1. SWOT Analysis-is a tool analysis used to know the strength, weaknesses

(internal factors), opportunities and threats (external factors) in an
organization to achieve a goal.
Internal factors- are factors within the company, the strength and weakness of
the company/organization.
External factors-are affecting factors outside the company that affects the plan of
the company/organization.

an organization that can assess major external factors that influence its
operation in order to achieve goal and be competitive

Political- includes rules, regulations, laws and politics imposed

by the government which affects the organization.

Economic- covers purchasing power, interest rate inflation, employment and

unemployment rates

Socio-Cultural- includes people’s preferences, needs, demographics,

attitudes and cultural backgrounds

Technological-includes those related to technological innovation and

their impacts.

Example of PEST Analysis for Coronavirus

Political  Government is being slow to the response of corona virus
 It may lead to dissatisfaction among citizen to the government
Economic  Unemployment
 Economic output was reduced
 Economic activities were negatively affected

 Racism
 Fear

 What is It

Creative solution using Intuitive thinking

Intuitive thinking is the ability to understand the reality without using logical
reasoning. It uses years of experiences and your senses to create solution to a certain
problem in the community.

Intuitive thinking can actually create solution without using tool analysis as
long as there’s a lot of experiences and expertise and at the same time social networks
can be used to create solutions.

A social network is a set of social actors (such as individual or organization,

institutions) in a social structure that interacts with each other.
In the map of social networks, it helps us to examine and understand
situations which can identify problems/threats in a certain community, since these
networks are interrelated. Institutions like politics, economic, cultural and even
kinship ties help to examine and identify problems in making creative solutions.
