Abstract

This chapter emphasises the benefits of exploring the environment. We offer a systematic process to go about analysing the immediate organisational environment, by identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and the larger industrial environment, with a competitor analysis. Change leaders must investigate their context to identify business opportunities and therefore they need to look at the bigger picture. Neuroscience reveals that the brain experiences a positive response when a person is exposed to novel ideas. This chapter discusses the implications of our brains that look for new information. The emerging market featured in this chapter is China, which is the best performing emerging market. We discuss the implications of the Chinese historical and cultural background for exploring business opportunities with Chinese companies.
