Working Paper 2: Performance & Profitability Review - Years 1-3 (Word Limit 800 words)

This Working Paper needs to provide a summary and analysis of the results (both Financial & Non-Financial) that you have achieved over the first three years of your tenure. It should compare actual results of your nominated key performance indicators against targets set and perhaps other benchmarks e.g. industry averages, main competitors. It should give a clear indication of how you have done in developing your strategic direction to date and provide some explanations of the success or otherwise of your decisions to date.

This working paper should also review your current comparative competitive position in each segment in relation to customer buying requirements. It should also examine the different strategies being adopted by competitors (especially those competing with similar strategies). Examples of what it should include are listed below:
