Part A
The three major categories are technological, external, and internal influences. Internal environment is the kind of events that occur inside the business. They are under the control of the company. They include management system, finance management, and organizational culture. External environmental factors are the factors that are outside and beyond the company control. Examples include economic factors, competition, and government regulations. Technological influences involve any changes that affect the application of technology tools and software. They either increase the productivity of the business or decrease it (Adams, 2012). The potential solution for the external influences is insuring the business against the risks that may arise. The case of internal, the management should strategize on their control. For the technological factors, the business should align its operations to utilize the technologies.
