Introduction

 
Business organizations operate in a turbulent environment and the changes in the environment impacts business. The changes that take place in the internal and external environments impinge on the policy decisions of business enterprises and cast profound influence in their working and efficiency. The external environmental factors are in a con-tinual flux creating new opportunities and new threats to the company. They are always capable of producing major shocks, which Peter Drucker has called as, “an Age of Discontinuity.” In order to survive and succeed a company must consider and understand the environment and make policies to adopt to or alter the environment.

Prof. Keith Davis defines business environment as, “the aggre-gate of all conditions events and influences that surround and affect it.” These surroundings are constantly changing and uncertain.
