Analysis of the External Environment
MACRO  General environment
–Focused on the broader society (broad context)
–Dimensions in the broader society that influences an
industry and firms within it
 Industry environment
–Focused on factors and conditions directly
MICRO
influencing a firm’s profitability within an industry
 Competitor environment
–Focused on predicting the dynamics of competitors’
actions, responses and intentions
The External Environment
Firms cannot directly CONTROL the general
environment’s segments.
However, these segments influence the actions that
firms take.
Successful firms learn how to gather the information
needed to understand all segments and their
implications for selecting and implementing the firm’s
strategies.
The External Environment
Definition of 7 Segments
Demographic:
- Is concerned with a population’s size, age, structure,
geographic distribution, ethnic mix, and income
distribution
Economic:
- Refers to the nature and direction of the economy in
which the firm operates
Political/Legal:
- Is the formal rules and expected patterns of behavior of
the authorities with respect to business, as well as
degree of risk/security emanating from extant political
situation
- Example: Swiss army knife sales drop 30% post 9/11
Definition of 7 Segments
Socio-cultural:
- Is composed of society’s attitudes and cultural values
Technological:
- Is institutions and activities involved in creation of knowledge
and its transfer into products and servicers
Global:

practices required to adapt to the changes
External Environment Example: Philip

top 30 cigarette markets
 Implementing strategies in anticipation of future external
environmental conditions
- Working with foreign governments on regulatory framework
- Opportunities in emerging markets
- Smokeless tobacco in anticipation of fewer smokers
- Support of sustainable farming
- Waste reduction in manufacturing
4 Ways to Identify Opportunities and Threats
 Scanning
Identifying early signals
 Monitoring
Ongoing observation of certain events
 Forecasting
Predicting events in the future
 Assessing
Evaluating timing and importance of future events

Homework Approach
 Do the analysis at the industry level; NOT at the company level.
 Identify which segment is most relevant for the external factor.
 Justify why you think a particular external factor is an opportunity or
threat for the industry.
- You may answer in bullet points / short sentences.
- Go beyond stating facts, always ask yourself WHY it is a threat or
opportunity
 Not all segments will have relevant external factors mentioned in the case.
- Stick to the content given in the case.
 Use template to structure your thoughts and analysis; gives you the ability to
apply frameworks.
