Identify and evaluate the suitability of the organisation's current strategy

By
Task 
Implementation is the most difficult aspect of strategic management. Why is this the case? Use your organisation to show why this is so. 
In this assignment, you are required to write a 3,500 word Report. This includes a 200 word executive summary, but excludes references and appendix. 
Your Report should cover the following: 
1. Identify and evaluate the suitability of the organisation's current strategy 
(a) Identify and discuss the strategy that the organisation (or SBU) is 
implementing/has implemented by examining its strategy statement and/or its value chain activities. 
(b) Evaluate the suitability of the organisation's current strategy based on the outcomes of your analysis (e.g., the identification of the organisation's current strategy and the most significant factors affecting the organisation's performance, and your understanding of the organisation's strategy). If the current strategy is not suitable, please recommend no more than two alternative strategic initiatives that the organisation should pursue and justify your recommendations. 
2. Evaluate the implementation of strategy by using Hubbard's model 
3. Identify the key issues and give your recommendations 
4. Draw your conclusion 
Rationale 
The rationale for this task is to develop skills in problem solving, analysis, evaluation and reflection in relation to strategic implementation in contemporary organisation. Completion of this assessment should facilitate the development of a good understanding of what is involved in the process of strategic implementation. 
This contributes to the following learning outcomes for this subject: 
• Be able to identify and explain the key components of strategic management such as strategy analysis, strategy formulation and strategy implementation, and their interrelationships; 
• Be able to review and evaluate the evolution of ideas and practices leading to the development of strategic management and its relationship to other management practices and principles; 
• Be able to identify and differentiate between functional areas such as marketing, finance, operations and human resource management and evaluate how they should act conjointly toward the attainment of the organisations strategic aims and objectives; 
. Be able to evaluate the importance of developing strategically appropriate relationships between people, processes, functions, structures and even organisations; and 
• Be able to critique, act strategically, and make recommendations in the context of the potential of strategic management vis-a-vis the realisation of organisational change and/or success in the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors.

By
1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java. (Be sure to rename the Public Class accordingly.) Starting with the provided code again (without the Try/Catch block), fix the code so that ...
