2-1 The General, Industry, and
Competitor Environments (slide 1 of 3)
• The general environment is composed of dimensions in
the broader society that influence an industry and the
firms within it.
• The dimensions are grouped into seven environmental
segments:
1. Demographic
2. Economic
3. Political / legal
4. Sociocultural
5. Technological
6. Global
7. Sustainable physical environment

2-1 The General, Industry, and
Competitor Environments (slide 2 of 3)
• The industry environment is a set of factors that directly influences
a firm and its competitive actions and responses:
• The threat of new entrants
• The power of suppliers
• The power of buyers
• The threat of product substitutes
• The intensity of rivalry among competing firms
• How companies gather and interpret information about their
competitors is called competitor analysis.
• Understanding the firm’s competitor environment complements the
insights provided by studying the general and industry environments.

2-1 The General, Industry, and
Competitor Environments (slide 3 of 3)
• An analysis of the general environment focuses on environmental
trends and their implications.
• An analysis of the industry environment focuses on the factors and
conditions influencing an industry’s profitability potential.
• An analysis of competitors is focused on predicting competitors’
actions, responses, and intentions.
• In combination, the results of these three analyses influence the
firm’s:
• Vision
• Mission
• Choice of strategies
• Competitive actions and responses it will take to implement those
strategies

2-2d Assessing
• When assessing, the objective is to determine the timing
and significance of the effects of environmental changes
and trends that have been identified.
• The intent of assessment is to specify the implications of
understanding the general environment.
• Although gathering and organizing information is important,
appropriately interpreting that information to determine if an
identified trend in the general environment is an
opportunity or threat is critical.

2-3 Segments of the
General Environment
• The general environment is composed of the following segments
that are external to the firm:
• Demographic
• Economic
• Political / legal
• Sociocultural
• Technological
• Global
• Sustainable physical environment
• These environmental segments affect all industries and the firms
competing in them.
• For each segment, firms have to determine the strategic relevance of
environmental changes and trends.

2-3a The Demographic Segment
(slide 1 of 3)
Population Size
• It is projected that population growth will continue in the twenty-first
century, but at a slower pace.
• Firms may want to recognize the market potential that may exist for
them in the following five nations, which are expected to be the most
populous nations in the world by 2050:
1. India
2. China
3. United States
4. Indonesia
5. PakistanHitt, Ireland, Hoskisson, Strategic Management: Competitiveness & Globalization: Concepts & Cases, 13e. © 2020 Cengage.

2-3a The Demographic Segment
(slide 2 of 3)
Age Structure
• The world’s population is rapidly aging.
• The aging of the population:
• Has significant implications for availability of qualified labor, health care,
retirement policies, and business opportunities among others.
• Threatens the ability of firms to hire and retain a workforce that meets
their needs.
Geographic Distribution
• How a population is distributed within countries and regions is
subject to change over time.
• Examples: In the United States, the shift from states in the Northeast
and Great Lakes region to states in the West, South, and Southwest; in
China, the shift from rural areas to urban communities

2-3a The Demographic Segment
(slide 3 of 3)
Ethnic Mix
• The ethnic mix of countries’ populations continues to change.
• Example: The increase in the Hispanic population in the United States
• The ethnic diversity of the population is important because of:
• Consumer needs
• The labor force composition
Income Distribution
• Income distribution within and across populations informs firms of
different groups’ purchasing power and discretionary income.
• Example: The rise in domestic consumption of consumer goods by
India’s middle class has positioned it as a market of interest.
• Of particular interest to firms are the average incomes of
households and individuals.

2-3b The Economic Segment
• The economic environment refers to the nature and
direction of the economy in which a firm competes or
may compete.
• In general, firms seek to compete in relatively stable
economies with strong growth potential.
• It is challenging for firms studying the economic
environment to predict economic trends that may occur
and their effects on them.
• When facing economic uncertainty, firms especially want
to study closely the economic environment in multiple
regions and countries throughout the world.

2-3c The Political / Legal Segment
• The political / legal segment is the arena in which organizations
and interest groups compete for attention, resources, and a voice in
overseeing the body of laws and regulations guiding interactions
among nations as well as between firms and various local
governmental agencies.
• Essentially, this segment is concerned with:
• How organizations try to influence governments
• How they try to understand the current and projected influences of those
governments on their competitive actions and responses
• The relationship between national, regional, and local laws and
regulations creates a highly complex environment within which
businesses must navigate.

All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or part.
2-3e The Technological Segment
• The technological segment includes the institutions and activities
involved in creating new knowledge and translating that knowledge
into new outputs, products, processes, and materials.
• Firms should continuously scan the general environment to identify:
• Potential substitutes for technologies that are in current use
• Newly emerging technologies from which their firm could derive
competitive advantage
• New technology and innovations are changing many industries.
• Examples: The Internet and wireless communication technology
• Thus, firms in all industries must become more innovative in order to
survive.

2-3f The Global Segment (slide 1 of 2)
• The global segment includes relevant new global
markets and their critical cultural and institutional
characteristics, existing markets that are changing, and
important international political events.
• When studying the global segment, firms should recognize
that globalization of business markets may create
opportunities to enter new markets, as well as threats that
competitors from other economies may enter their market.
• Global focusing:
• Is a more cautious approach to globalization in which firms focus on
global niche markets
• Allows firms to build onto and use their competencies while limiting
their risks within the niche market

2-3g The Sustainable Physical
Environment Segment
• The sustainable physical environment segment
refers to potential and actual changes in the physical
environment and business practices that are intended to
positively respond to those changes in order to create a
sustainable environment.
• Concerned with trends oriented to sustaining the world’s
physical environment, firms recognize that ecological,
social, and economic systems interactively influence
what happens in this particular segment and that they
are part of an interconnected global society.
• An increasing number of companies are investing in
sustainable development.

2-4 Industry Environment Analysis
• An industry is a group of firms producing products that are close
substitutes.
• Companies use a mix of different competitive strategies to pursue
above-average returns when competing in a particular industry.
• An industry’s structural characteristics influence a firm’s choice of strategies.
• Compared with the general environment, the industry environment
has a more direct effect on firms’ competitive actions and responses.
• To study an industry, the firm examines five forces that affect the
ability of all firms to operate profitably within a given industry:
1. The threats posed by new entrants
2. The power of suppliers
3. The power of buyers
4. Product substitutes
5. The intensity of rivalry among competitors

2-4a Threat of New Entrants (slide 1 of 5)
• Identifying new entrants is important because they can threaten the
market share of existing competitors.
• How likely firms will enter an industry is a function of two factors:
1. Barriers to entry
2. The retaliation expected from current industry participants
Barriers to Entry
• Companies competing within a particular industry study entry
barriers to determine the degree to which their competitive position
reduces the likelihood of new competitors being able to enter the
industry to compete against them.
• Firms considering entering an industry study entry barriers to
determine the likelihood of being able to identify an attractive
competitive position within the industry.

All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or part.
2-4a Threat of New Entrants (slide 2 of 5)
• There are several significant entry barriers:
• Economies of scale
• Product differentiation
• Capital requirements
• Switching costs
• Access to distribution channels
• Cost disadvantages independent of scale
• Government policy
Economies of Scale
• With economies of scale, the cost of producing each unit declines as the
quantity of a product produced during a given period increases.
• A new entrant is unlikely to quickly generate the level of demand for its
product that would allow it to develop economies of scale.

2-4a Threat of New Entrants (slide 3 of 5)
Product Differentiation
• Over time, customers may come to believe that a firm’s product
is unique and consistently purchase that firm’s product.
• To combat the perception of uniqueness, new entrants frequently
offer products at lower prices.
• However, this may result in lower profits or even losses.
Capital Requirements
• Competing in a new industry requires a firm to have capital for
physical facilities, inventories, marketing activities, and other
critical business functions.
• The capital required for successful market entry may not be
available to pursue the market opportunity.

2-4a Threat of New Entrants (slide 4 of 5)
Switching Costs
• Switching costs are the one-time costs customers incur when
they buy from a different supplier.
• If switching costs are high, a new entrant must attract buyers by
offering either:
• A substantially lower price
• A much better product
Government Policy
• Governmental decisions and policies that can control entry into
an industry include:
• The granting of licenses and permits
• Deregulation
• Antitrust issues

2-4b Bargaining Power of Suppliers
• Suppliers can exert power over firms competing within an industry
by:
• Increasing prices
• Reducing the quality of their products
• A supplier group is powerful when:
• It is dominated by a few large companies and is more concentrated than
the industry to which it sells.
• Satisfactory substitute products are not available to industry firms.
• Industry firms are not a significant customer for the supplier group.
• Suppliers’ goods are critical to buyers’ marketplace success.
• The effectiveness of suppliers’ products has created high switching
costs for industry firms.
• It poses a credible threat to integrate forward into the buyers’ industry.

2-4c Bargaining Power of Buyers
• To reduce their costs, buyers bargain for:
• Higher quality
• Greater levels of service
• Lower prices
• Customers (buyer groups) are powerful when:
• They purchase a large portion of an industry’s total output.
• The sales of the product being purchased account for a
significant portion of the seller’s annual revenues.
• They could switch to another product at little, if any, cost.
• The industry’s products are undifferentiated or standardized, and
the buyers pose a credible threat if they were to integrate
backward into the sellers’ industry.

2-4d Threat of Substitute Products
• Substitute products are goods or services from outside a given
industry that perform similar or the same functions as a product that
the industry produces.
• In general, product substitutes present a strong threat to a firm
when:
• Customers face few, if any, switching costs
• The substitute product’s price is lower
• The substitute product’s quality and performance capabilities are equal
to or greater than those of the competing product
• To reduce a substitute’s attractiveness, a firm can differentiate a
product along dimensions that are valuable to customers, such as:
• Quality
• Service after the sale
• Location

2-4e Intensity of Rivalry
among Competitors
• Competitive rivalry intensifies when:
• A firm is challenged by a competitor’s actions
• A company recognizes an opportunity to improve its market position
• Common dimensions on which rivalry is based include:
• Price
• Service after the sale
• Innovation
• Factors that increase the intensity of rivalries among firms include:
• Numerous or equally balanced competitors
• Slow industry growth
• High fixed costs or high storage costs
• Lack of differentiation or low switching costs
• High strategic stakes
• High exit barriers

2-5 Interpreting Industry Analyses
• Analysis of the five forces within a given industry allows the firm to
determine the industry’s attractiveness in terms of the potential to
earn average or above-average returns.
• Stronger competitive forces usually mean a lower potential to earn profits.
• An unattractive industry has:
• Low entry barriers
• Suppliers and buyers with strong bargaining positions
• Strong competitive threats from product substitutes
• Intense rivalry among competitors
• An attractive industry has:
• High entry barriers
• Suppliers and buyers with little bargaining power
• Few competitive threats from product substitutes
• Relatively moderate rivalry

2-6 Strategic Groups (slide 2 of 3)
• Analyzing strategic groups can be helpful in diagnosing
competition, positioning, and the profitability of firms
competing within an industry.
• Using strategic groups to understand an industry’s competitive
structure requires the firm to plot companies’ competitive actions
and responses along strategic dimensions, such as:
• Pricing decisions
• Product quality
• Distribution channels
• This shows the firm how certain companies are competing
similarly in terms of how they use similar strategic dimensions.

2-7 Competitor Analysis (slide 1 of 2)
• Competitor analysis focuses on each company against which a firm
competes directly.
• In a competitor analysis, the firm seeks to understand the following:
• What drives the competitor, as shown by its future objectives
• What the competitor is doing, as revealed by its current strategy
• What the competitor believes about the industry, as shown by its
assumptions
• What the competitor’s capabilities are, as shown by its strengths and
weaknesses
• Knowledge about these four dimensions helps the firm prepare an
anticipated response profile for each competitor.

2-7 Competitor Analysis (slide 2 of 2)
• Competitor intelligence is the set of data and
information the firm gathers to better understand and
anticipate competitors’ objectives, strategies,
assumptions, and capabilities.
• When gathering competitive intelligence, a firm must pay
attention to the complementors of its products and
strategy.
• Complementors are companies or networks of companies that
sell complementary goods or services that are compatible with
the focal firm’s good or service.
• Example: Intel and Microsoft
