Amazon’s Environment
Some examples of current external environmental trends and forces that threaten the survival and
effectiveness of organizations include:
•Artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technologies: As Amazon exemplifies, extensions of AI
aid in automating a company's value chain, accelerating and improving operations and customer
service.
• The emergence of blockchain technologies, which are disrupting brand-new business
procedures. Blockchain technology is not a single thing; an architecture that allows disparate
users to make transactions and then creates an indestructible record of those transactions, as it is
referred to, is what it is.
• Cultural and economic value-added business models that use information technologies to
gain an advantage over rivals in the sharing economy. Using information and social media
technologies, removing the middle layer of management from transactions will continue to
improve efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and reduce costs. Companies have already
been impacted in positive and negative ways by this trend. Probably many customers gain from
this; Businesses have either failed or struggled to adapt with outdated and ineffective business
models.
• Sustainability, ethics, and corporate social responsibility (CSR): Governments, both public-
and private-sector corporations, are all characterized by fraud, lying, and corruption. However,
consumers and businesses have been made aware of the imminent risks and disadvantages of
certain large corporations' unethical and illegal activities thanks to public awareness raised
through social media and online media.
