What to Focus On

  • Business environment consists of forces, factors and institutions affecting business.
  • These forces may be internal or external, but most are beyond full control.
  • It influences business decisions, growth and survival.

  • The environment is dynamic, relative, inter-related, complex and uncertain.
  • General forces are macro environment; specific forces are micro environment.
  • Every business faces environmental forces continuously.

  • Environment study helps identify opportunities and threats.
  • It supports first mover advantage and early warning.
  • It helps in planning, strategy and competitive advantage.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Business environment means only external factors.

Micro environment is the real business environment and macro environment is less important.

Internal factors are fully part of the business environment in the same way as external factors.
