Chennai, Sept. 30 While mulling strategy, there are three things to ponder: It has to be applied based on one’s strength and weaknesses; opportunities and threats have to be identified; and focus on strategic resources and core competency.

In his keynote address at Man Meet 2008, conducted by Vael’s Institute of Business Administration (VIBA) at the Vels University here, Dr T.V. Subramanian, Chairman, Board of Studies, Bharatidasan Institute of Management, Tiruchi, also said Indian youth should contribute to India’s development rather than other countries.
