Hi everyone, it is great to be here; as Polycarp has just said, I am the managing director of Apple Inc. Company limited which has been experiencing challenges here and there; as of today, I am eager to take you through the SWOT analysis of the Company, which was done a few months ago by strategists in the field; this will help our company plan well to meet its future problems and factor in maximizing on the advantages.
I will start by analyzing the strengths of Apple company; this Company’s brand image and equity are its greatest assets. It is regarded as one of the most inventive technology brands globally, and its consumer-centric approach is praised despite its high-end reputation. It’s also a well-known brand that emphasizes excellent customer service. It is renowned as a brand that never compromises quality, resulting in a long-term competitive advantage. Apple’s goods are a ferocious competitor to Microsoft’s, with a surprisingly high level of popularity. The Apple experience has increased even more with new products such as the Apple Watch and Apple TV. On the other hand, the original Apple experience has remained unchanged.
As seen by its tremendous popularity in practically every region, Apple is a genuinely global brand. The Americas, Europe, Greater China, Japan, and the Rest of Asia Pacific are the Company’s reportable segments. The Americas comprise both North and South America. Europe is made up of European countries and India, the Middle East, and Africa. Within the Apple Company, technological innovation is also a breakthrough, and Apple has placed a strong focus on technical innovation since its inception. The brand has always placed a premium on bringing products to market that deliver a seamless experience for customers and are technologically and design-forward.
Weaknesses
Based on a positive customer experience, Apple promotes a high-end image. This puts a lot of pressure on the brand in terms of quality and design because people expect it to exceed their expectations consistently, and even minor flaws can cause displeasure. Another stumbling hurdle to Apple’s success is its restricted product assortment, which pales compared to most of its competitors. Apart from iPhones, Macs, and iPads, the Company’s other products are less popular and have limited sales. Apple’s products have a poor level of compatibility with those of other manufacturers. Apple has created an ecosystem of incompatible and interoperable products. These devices are built to be software and hardware agnostic, from Mac laptops and operating systems to cellphones.
Opportunities
Apple has a limited product variety compared to its competitors, but it can produce new things to improve its market share and client base. While Apple has been secretly considering many potential products and technology, the business has to focus on this area to progress more quickly. Another looming gap for Apple is investing in green technology. The increased importance of sustainability in this decade is well known. From transportation to power, the appeal of green technology has grown in various industries. Apple can also invest in this sector because it is predicted to rise in popularity.
Threats
Other PC manufacturers, such as HP, Lenovo, Dell, and Asus, are putting pressure on the Company. HP has the largest market share, followed by Lenovo and Dell. While Apple laptop sales have risen again since the announcement of the Mac Pro, there is still a lot of catching up to be done. For substantial global companies like Apple, economic swings in the worldwide sector are also a source of loss. The restoration of economic activity in the Americas has increased sales and profitability for Apple cap. However, volatility continues to occur in several economies worldwide, which might impact sales. In this century, the legal and regulatory challenges in the technology industry have only increased. Each sector has its own set of rules that differ by country, from labour to product safety and data. Compliance costs increase the operational costs of brands, putting pressure on them and incurring losses. Apple is also feeling the increasing compliance demand.

Self-evaluation
What were your main goals, and how well did you achieve them? My main goal during the presentation was to capture my audience’s attention all through, and I achieved this by including in my presentation facial expressions and maintaining appropriate eye contact with the audience.
How would you assess your performance since your last check-in with your audience? I can say that my performance was perfect; this is asserted by the audience asking relevant questions after the discussion with them.
What are three things you did exceptionally effectively during the presentation? Maintaining meaningful eye contact, Employing good tonal variation in my expression and using appropriate gestures during in-depth explanations. (Castilla-Earls et al., 2020)
Experience in preparing, delivering, and evaluating the speech.
Establishing the flow of the speech was the major stumbling block in writing the speech. I overcame this by ensuring that I assigned priority to essential points first and a constant reflection on the ideas that I was to present before the day of the presentation.
Both my audience, who were evaluating my speech and I found something in common; my evaluators commented that my address was exemplary, just as I did consider my speech; two specific areas in my address, however, needed action the next time I’ll be tasked with giving a talk, to improve on my audibility, since the audience who were seated at the back missed some parts of my remarks, especially the concluding details (Audrezet et al., 2020)
Strategies to Improve the presentation skills
Make it a point to talk in front of people. In your presentation, use less text and more graphics.
Make the most of your individuality. During the presentation, please feel free to ask questions and make comments. Be enthusiastic and engaging. Maintain eye contact with the others in the room. Obsess your audience.
