SOAR analysis

Can be used instead of SWOT with Appreciative Inquiry due to the focus on positives.

SOAR analysis is a strategic planning framework rooted in appreciative inquiry (AI) that is composed of four features—Strengths (S), Opportunities (O), Aspirations (A), and Results (R)—that can be applied to individuals or businesses at a system-wide level.
