The external environment
affecting the organisation may be divided into two major categories – Direct action and Indirect action
environment. Direct action environment consists of those factors that directly
affect and are affected by the organization’s operations. These factors include
suppliers, labor unions, and the various laws of the land, customers and
competitors. The indirect action environment, on the other hand, consists of

nevertheless influence the activities of the firm. These include such factors
as technology, socio-cultural and political factors, general economic
conditions and so on. Let us now understand the impact of all these factors in
