Organizations must adapt to change continuously because of the changing demands of consumers and
competition from other organizations for market share. Organizations must adapt to:
Changes in the external environment (opportunities and threats)
Changes in the internal environment (strengths and weaknesses)
The extent to which the chosen strategies have been successful
Because of the above, strategic management is not something that is done once. An organization should
implement a continuous process which is constantly evaluated, regardless of the type of industry
involved.

The business environment is made up of two external environments. These are:
The macro environment: this contains factors which can affect an organization from the
technological, economic, social, physical, institutional-government and international
environments.
The market environment: factors such as consumers, competitors, intermediaries and suppliers
which can impact an organization.
An external environmental analysis is necessary to identify the key factors in these external environments
which can impact an organization in a positive or negative way. These are known opportunities and
threats. In the same way that an external analysis looks at factors outside the organization, and internal
analysis looks inside the organization. The purpose of an internal analysis is to identify the strengths and
weaknesses of the organization. This is done by assessing the resources and capabilities of the
organization. Resources could be factors such as large amount of cash or many factories. Capabilities
could be the ability to innovate or to make quality products.
Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats are often summarized in a SWOT analysis. This is an
important strategic tool as a good strategy matches the strengths and weaknesses of an organization with
opportunities and threats in the environment.
