4.1 Analysis of Stakeholders in Corporate Strategy
Stakeholders entail what Chebbi et al. (2020) identify as ‘people or organisations with interests on corporate strategy influencing how it is implemented’. Considering HWE, a summary of their stakeholders analysis is illustrated in the following;

Further, the Mendelow Matrix Analysis is appropriate for stakeholders relationships in the corporate strategy implementation;

Low Power; Low Interest– The UK government and also competitors in the healthcare sector are primarily only keep informed stakeholders with limited input on the corporate strategy. They play a facilitative roles and are found influencing developing policies and focus.
4.2 Analysis of External Factors which Impact Strategic Aims
To identify different external factors, it is relevant using STEEPLED Analysis appropriately (CIPS , 2023a). This is appropriate for varying organisation functions to discover, evaluate, organise and track entire external risks;
