At a minimum the following components should be included:1. An analysis of the organization’s external environment and an identification of key strategic issues facing the leadership. You should explain how the issues logically connect to the external environmental analysis.2. A list of the organization’s key stakeholders and the relationship of each to the organization (why does each stakeholder have a stake in the organization?).3.
