In portfolio analysis, the business views its product lines and business units as separate investments, each responsible for producing a positive return. These separate investments together form a portfolio from which the business decides where best to invest their resources.
Over the next three weeks, you will perform a Portfolio Analysis specific to your topical area for your case study. This Portfolio Analysis will become "Appendix C" for your case study. Additional guidance for this Portfolio Analysis is as follows:
• Include either the BCG Growth Share Matrix or the GE Business Screen in your analysis
• Analyze the main business functions, to include: finance, marketing, operations, and human resources.
• The analysis should be suitable for review by a senior business executive demonstrating evidence of logical analysis, reasoned judgment, attention to organizational ethics, and value creation.
• Please be sure to include your recommendations for action in your narrative.
