The general environment includes those sectors that might not have a direct impact on the daily operations of a. Rm but will indirectly in uence it - often includes the government; sociocultural, technology, and nancial resources sectors; and the economy - these sector a ect all organizations eventually. The international sector can directly a ect many organizations, and it has become extremely important in the last few years - in addition, al domestic sectors can be a ected by international events. The distinctions between foreign and domestic operations have become increasingly irrelevant. The stable-unstable dimension refers to whether elements in the environment are dynamic.
