Questions from the Dunkin Donuts case study from Exploring Management (3rd ed) by John R. Schermerhorn.
Discussion Questions.
1) What a Porter’s Five Forces analysis reveal about the industry in which Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks compete, and what are its strategic implications for Dunkin Donuts?
2) In what ways is Dunkin Donuts presently using strategic alliances, and how could cooperative strategies further assist with its master plan for growth?
3) Do you see evidence of strategic leadership in Dunkin’s U.S. expansion plans? If so, how?
4) Further research: Gather information of industry trends, as well as current developments with Dunkin Donuts and its competitors. Use this information to build an up-to-date SWOT analysis for Dunkin Donuts. If you were the CEO of the firm, what would you consider to be the strategic management implications of this analysis, and why?
