Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term "environment" refers to the external factors that affect a firm, including suppliers, customers, competitors, and the legal, technological, and economic context in which it operates. All of these factors have an impact on the firm's ability to access the resources it needs for success, including capital, labor, customers, and new technology, as well as stable markets and legal systems, and general educational resources. HR department, culture, and knowledge workers are all important elements of a firm's internal environment, but they do not encompass the full range of factors that influence a firm's external environment.
