External Environment may pose significant threats or in some cases herald openings and novel possibilities for an organization. An organization is directly affected by events happening in the environment that it is supposed to be functioning in. The external environment provides the paradigm, the impetus and the most essential factor that shapes an organization. Any organization that easily adapts to the environment essentially survives and the ones that do not are the ones that are eliminated in the competition. External environment may effect in any of the following areas :-
1) Political Environment :- The politics of a country or region that an organization is functioning in affect the policies and benefits that an organization derives from a system. Also, it's the main pool from which the human resource of an organization is selected from and hence it is likely to shape an organization both internally and externally. Also, the political environment and external policies that an organization needs to adhere to are actually dictated by it's political environment
2) Technological Environment:- Any new development may render an organization's processes and systems obsolete if it is not quick to adapt to the new changes. To move forward it is essential to keep updating an organization on a reiterative basis. This becomes even more relevant in case of businesses that rely heavily on technology and are technologically sensitive.
3) Social Environment:- Pretty self explanatory, the social environment and the ethical leanings of the individuals responsible for an organization's functioning and the ergonomic leanings with the external environment define an organization's charter and it's modus operandi.
