Whom does the organization serve? What are the needs of its constituents? What are the organization's strengths? Its weaknesses? What are the threats facing the profession that the organization can address? What are the opportunities for the legal profession that the organization can work with? What trends are taking place in the legal profession that will affect the organization's work or its direction? What programs of the organization are going to be obsolete? What programs should be added? Does the organization have competition in its work? Are there opportunities for collaboration with competitors or with other entities in similar areas?
