I have conducted the Personal SWOT analysis for knowing my strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. My powers allow me to improve my working quality, which will help the organization. The weaknesses will help me in improving and catching opportunities if there are any. The threats in the organization will help in the improvement and enhancement of the skills and qualities in the working environment.  If there are strengths then there will be a weakness that I need to improve and make them my opportunities.

Threats are part of the business world. This can affect the company more drastically if they will not be managed properly.
