Abstract

Focused on the subset of external business environment (EBE), this chapter explores the EBE´s “layers” and “elements” and the firm´s view of them. Entering the analyzability function, it describes the utility of the business environment analyzability (BEA) function and the typology of business environment analyzability projects (BEAP). Furthermore, the schools of thought in strategic management are interconnected to organizational value, and herein, is emphasized the importance (and competitive implications) of BEA to value-creation. Strategy interfaces, namely the external interface, are associated with prior concepts such as “organizational fit” or “strategic drift” and argued on the role BEAPs on the shaping of the firms position in the EBE.
