社会环境
当今世界变化莫测,全世界都在发生意义深远的变革.不断变化的社会环境,显著地影响着我们,如何生活,在何处生活,买什么,如何消耗我们的时间和金钱.人口结构的变化以及人口的巨大增长,使一些企业有了新的机遇,同时也使另一些企业的机会减少.
全球化正在把我们的世界变成一个小村庄.不同文化背景的人们开始一起生活一起工作,从而形成了一个多文化的形形色色的人口结构.从商业的角度来看,多文化的人口结构使一个民族和人们有机会学习同其他民族的人们一同工作.此外,多样的人口结构也是一个强大的群体.正如一片健康的森林,是由形形色色的树木和枝叶组成;因此,仅管疾病可能影响其中一颗树,却不能影响全部.一个强有力的经营群体,也同样是由不同年龄,不同信仰,不同经历和不同民族的人们组成.中国之所以在世界政治和经济舞台上越来越重要,其中的一个原因,就是因为其具有的多样性,以及过去几十年的对外开放.
