The firm and its Environment
The business firm’s environment refers to the conditions
and elements that define its operations and determine its success.
There are two types of firm’s environment
1. Internal Environment – consist of elements that have a
direct impact on the business. These include the employees, board
of directors, and the managers. The elements of the internal
environment are directly controlled and can be freely modified by
the firm itself.
2. External Environment - consist of factors that have indirect
but significant influence on the operations of the business. These
factors, however, cannot be controlled by the firm.
SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis is a technique that identifies the Strengths and
Weaknesses of a company, as well as the Opportunities and Threats it faces.
In conducting this analysis, it is imperative to note that strengths and
weaknesses are part of the company’s internal environment, while
opportunities and threats are part of its external environment.
