Michael Porter is a leading authority on competitive strategy and international competitiveness. He developed the influential Five Forces model for analyzing competition within an industry. The model examines five competitive forces - threat of new entry, power of suppliers, power of buyers, threat of substitutes, rivalry among existing competitors - that shape an industry's structure and determine the intensity of competition. Porter's work has provided frameworks for analyzing industries, developing competitive strategies, and understanding national and regional competitiveness. He continues to advise top companies and influence thinking in fields like healthcare through research at Harvard Business School.

2. Input-Output Described• The output of an industry will appear as the input of other industries• This helps us to track the flow of money from one entity to the next

3. Input-Output Precisely DefinedIO models describe both the transactions between the region and the rest of the world among activities within the region. These models produce a multiplier index that measures the total effect or impact of an increase in demand on employment or income.They can be used for predicting and forecasting the impacts of potential future performance of a regional economy & changes in inter-industry transactions.

4. Practical UsesDescriptive – can reveal knowledge about an area’s economy that would be impossible to get otherwise.Forecasting – estimate total impact of certain events or policy changes.Assessment – evaluate and assess specific goals, scenarios, etc.IO is used to identify the best approach!

5. How to use IO

6. Conclusion IO helps to evaluate, predict & assess goals and policies in an inter-connected system of sectors / industries in an economyThank You!

7. External Environment AnalysisTEAM A - GROUP 3ALEX FRANCISQUINI, SUDEEP ADHIKARY, TATIANA LEVYKINA,JAMES BARLOW, DINAR PAYO

8. External Environmental AnalysisDEFINITION: Process of scanning and evaluating an organization’s external environmental sectors in order to determine positive and negative trends that could impact organizational performance.How managers determine the opportunities and threats facing their organizations.

9. Assess current situation and external environment.

10. Formulate new strategies or change current ones in response to opportunities or threats.Opportunities: refer to favourable conditions in the environment that could produce rewards for an organization. Threats: factors in an external environment that poses danger to an organization’s well-being(prevent firms from reaching their objectives). Examining opportunities: Discover untapped markets.Discover new products or technologies.Identify potential avenues for diversification.Examining threats:Identify unfavourable market shifts or changes in technology.Create a defensive posture aimed at preserving your competitive position.Opportunities & Threats

11. Organizations interact and respond to their environment.Take inputs and process to outputs.Outputs are distributed, (external environment).Changes may affect a whole organization. Due to interaction with the environment, can be divided into two different perspectives:Environment as a source of information.

12. Environment as a source of resources.Organizations as open systems

13. Environmental uncertaintyEnvironment as information is based on the idea of environmental uncertainty, (amount of change and complexity in organization’s environment).Environment as a source of resources based on idea that the more hostile environment becomes the more difficult is to obtain and control resources.External analysis of an organization can be classified as: Specific - customers, competitors, suppliers and other competitive variables, (analysed using Porter’s five forces).General - economic, demographic, sociocultural, political-legal and technological.

14. Environmental uncertaintyBusinesses operate in an external environment in which as well as competition from rivals, businesses have to take account of legal, political, social and economic influences.A SLEPT (Social, Legal, Economic, Political, Technological) analysis is often carried out by business planners which enables them to develop more informed strategies (i.e. long term plans).

15. Environmental uncertaintySocial factorsRelate to change is society and social structures. Changes in the structure of the population, and in consumer lifestyles and behaviour affect buying patterns.Legal factorsRelate to changes in laws and regulations. Businesses must be careful to keep within the law and to anticipate ways in which changes in laws will affect the way they must behave.Economic factorsRelate to changes in the wider economy. A growing economy provides greater opportunities for businesses to make profits, so businesses welcome rising living standards. Political factorsRelate to ways in which changes in government and government policy can influence business. Technological factorsProvide opportunities for businesses to adopt new breakthroughs, innovations, and inventions to cut costs and develop new products.
