This standard asks you to show you understand how big businesses have to react to things happening outside their control — things like new technology, laws, employee strikes, or what society expects from them. You need to pick a real New Zealand business you've studied and explain what these external pressures are, how they affect the business, and what the business does about them.

- ·Explain both the positive and negative impacts these external factors have on the business
- ·Link these impacts to actual business consequences (like costs, profits, relationships with customers or employees)
- ·Show how management actually responds to these external pressures with specific examples from your business
