case study :Southwest Airlines

All assigned cases can be found in the
latter part of the textbook. You should
use the case as a baseline of information, but it is expected that
additional research is necessary to fully assess any recent issues and for the
most updated information. Analysis of a case will involve responses to the set
of questions on that case, as follows:

Southwest Airlines

1.
Evaluate the
strength of the competitive forces in the airline industry using the 5-forces
framework.
2.
How does Southwest’s
approach to competing in this industry influence the competitive forces it
faces?
3.
How has it
benefited from the broader changes in the external environment and what should
it be concerned about in the future?
4.
If you were the CEO of the company, what courses of action would you pursue to address these
issues? Explain how you would implement these, how they would address each
issue, and what potential risks may exist.

NOTE: Consistent
with this policy, Turnitin will be used on all assignments to check for matches
to any external material. The score for an assignment could be negatively
impacted based on how much of it seems to be “borrowed” directly from
unattributed sources. All work must be cited in text (APA format) and include
references. Any case study or company analysis/project which does not include
the above will receive a zero.
