They are hierarchical factors: some relate to the organization as a whole, while others relate to specific areas within it. However, all these factors are interconnected, <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">and each is built on and depends on the others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 28px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #00ccff;\"><strong>Competition and Critical Factors<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">It goes without saying that simply identifying an organization\u2019s critical factors is not enough; those factors must also help strengthen its competitiveness in the market. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">It is also essential to put these factors and the objectives they produce into practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">This shows that applying these factors and using them effectively is the central dimension through which the desired results can be achieved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">Above all, before deciding to compete in a particular market, an organization must identify what is critical to it and <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">set its priorities one by one.
