On
external appraisal:
Andrews concluded his
discussion with questions such as "What is the
underlying structure of the industry in which the
firm participates?" and "How might foreseeable
change in the social, political, and macroeconomic
context impact the industry or the firm?" (179-180).
On internal appraisal, Andrews touched on a variety
of points, such as the difficulty "for organizations as
well as for individuals to know themselves" (183)
and the idea that "individual and unsupported
flashes of strength are not as dependable as the
gradually accumulated product-and-market-related
fruits of experience" (185).
Managerial valuesthe beliefs and preferences of
those who formally lead the organization.
Social responsibilitiesspecifically the ethics of the
society in which the organization functions, at least
as these are perceived by its managers.
