Over time, many great ideas and models are developed, only to be replaced by something newer (and perhaps better). This week’s Learning Resources present the traditional situational analysis (McGraw-Hill, 2012), a more current perspective (Dolan, 2014), and a somewhat more narrow focus (Dass & Kumar, 2014).

How do these fit within the Marketing Plan Coach’s (2012) description of situational analysis?
How does the Dass & Kumar (2014) article affect your perspective?
