involved in pursuing defined objectives. It can be
understood as a social system which comprises all
formal human relationships. The organization
encompasses division of work among employees and
alignment of tasks towards the ultimate goal of the
company
All organizations have a management structure that
determines relationships between the different activities
and the members, and subdivides and assigns roles,
responsibilities, and authority to carry out different
tasks.

Stakeholders, Managers and Ethics
A stakeholder is a party that has an interest in a company and can either affect or be affected by the
business. The primary stakeholders in a typical corporation are its investors, employees, customers, and
suppliers.
However, with the increasing attention on corporate social responsibility, the concept has been extended
to include communities, governments, and trade associations.
Stakeholders can be internal or external
to an organization. Internal stakeholders
are people whose interest in a company
comes through a direct relationship, such
as employment, ownership, or
investment.
External stakeholders are those who do not
directly work with a company but are affected
somehow by the actions and outcomes of the
business. Suppliers, creditors, and public
groups are all considered external stakeholders
Understanding Stakeholders
Stakeholders are often divided into two groups, internal and external stakeholders.
Stakeholders

the strongest and most direct claim on Organizational
resources
Shareholders: the owners of the organization (Mutual Funds)
Managers: the employees who are responsible for
coordinating organizational resources and ensuring that an
organization’s goals are successfully met
The workforce: all non-managerial employees

External Environment & Organizational Relationships
The term “Business environment” represents the sum of all the individuals,
institutions, competing organisations, government, courts, media, investors,
and other factors outside the power of the business organisations but affects
the business performance. Hence, changes in government economic policies,
rapid changes in technology, changes in consumer tastes and preferences,
increasing market competition, etc. are outside the business organisations'
power but affect the business performance immensely.
The external environment comprises forces that exist outside the boundaries
of an organization, but have potential and significant influence on its survival
and growth.
External environment of an organization can be classified into two broad
components:
The General Environment.
The Task (Specific) Environment.
THE EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT & ITS COMPONENTS
General environment is the set of broad dimensions and
forces in an organization’s surroundings that create its overall
context.
 International dimension
 Technological dimension
 Political-legal dimension
 Socio-cultural dimension
 Economic dimension
Task environment consists of specific organizations or
groups that influence an organization.
 Competitors
 Customers
 Suppliers
 Strategic partners
 Regulators
HOW ORGANIZATIONS ADOPT TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT
The components of the environment affect the functioning of a
business organization. The management should develop some
alternative strategies to adapt to environmental influence. The
following points for how organizations adapt to their
environments.
Information management- Organizations can adapt to their
environment through information management. They can apply
many techniques for information management. These consist of
boundary spanners, environmental scanning, and information
system. There must be a proper information system within the
organization.
Strategic response- Strategic response is the process of
applying existing plans and policies if successfully functioning,
or developing new plans and policies to cope with environmental
change. The common approaches of strategic response are at
least resistance; proceeding with caution and dynamic
response.
Mergers, takeover, acquisition and alliances- In a competitive
environment, a business organization may face threats and challenges
due to environmental changes. To adapt to environmental changes, a
business organization may implement different strategies consisting of
mergers, takeover, acquisition and alliances.
Organization design and flexibility- In a dynamic environment, it is
essential to choose a few standard operating procedures. The
management should consider the organic design and should be flexible in
decision making on the basis of time and situation.
The direct influence of the environment- When organizations are able
to anticipate or forecast environmental changes, they may influence the
environment directly in many ways like lobbying and bargaining and
assigning long term contracts.
HOW ORGANIZATIONS ADOPT TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT
MANAGING IN A CHANGING GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT
With fast development in business field, management
environments are becoming more diverse. Global
Organizations are those which operate and compete in
more than one country. These are uncertain and
unpredictable. The global environment of such
companies is a set of forces and conditions exterior of
the organization's boundaries that affects the way it
operates and shapes its behavior.
DOING BUSINESS GLOBALLY: DIFFERENT TYPES OF ORG
Multinational Corporations:
A broad team term that refers to any and all types of
international companies that maintain operations.
Multidomestic Corporation:
An international company that decentralized
management and other decisions to the local country.
Global Company:
An MNC that centralize management and other
decision in the home country.

challenges. It is very difficult to manage an organization in a global
environment.
