Project 6: Business Brief – Business Environment Analysis
Purpose
To assess your ability to analyze the environment of an industry from the internal, political, economic, societal, and technological perspectives.

Overview
There are five major environments associated with any organization or industry – an internal environment and four external environments. The external environment analysis is sometimes referred to as a PEST analysis (political-economical-social-technological analysis).
In this assignment, you will need to research the industry you chose in order to identify the trends, patterns, and consistencies in the business environments for that industry.
• Trends – A series of data points that show either an upward or downward movement or a gradual movement in one direction.
• Patterns – Finding items that are recurring over and over in a cyclic fashion or if something regularly happens and a resulting reaction always occurs.
• Consistencies – Things (e.g., events or activities) that remain constant and really do not appear to change over time within the industries.
Action Items
1. View the following videos on various business environments, including both internal and external environments:
