Pitfalls of SWOT Analysis

Can be very subjective. Two people rarely come up with the


same final version of a SWOT. Use it as a guide and not as a
prescription.
May cause organizations to view circumstances as very
simple due to which certain key strategic contact may be
overlooked.
Categorizing aspects as strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities & threats might be very subjective as there is
great degree of uncertainty in market.
To be effective, SWOT needs to be conducted regularly. The
pace of change makes it difficult to anticipate
developments.
The data used in the analysis may be based on assumptions
that subsequently prove to be unfounded [good and bad].
It lacks detailed structure, so key elements may get missed.
