What impact does competition, economy, culture, laws, politics have on businesses?

Question

How will it effect a business and how it runs?

Answer 1

Put it this way:  Let's begin with two examples of office employees in a major corporation.....say......a global financial powerhouse business that caters to the entire planet.

1) A minority race woker

2) A "physically challenged" worker.

Both these employees are INEPT and lack pure productive talent---but that DOES NOT MATTER.  Because of the Federal grant $$$$ showered onto the corporation for cooperation in "Affirmitave Action" and "Employees With Disabilities Act"---Human Resources turns away two excellent candidates and hires these two.

In no time, these two "diverse" employees use their "politicall correctness" clout by law ( and some shady office politics) to rise high to the top of their profession.......and they have NO CLUE how to effectively do their jobs---which eventually brings on epic LOSSES in capital revenues that affect global financial markets.  Weak administrative management, fearful of civil lawsuits, should they fire these "special" employees--opts to sweep the dirty failure matters under the rug---which aggravates the problem rather than making it go away.

The mistakes these two bunglers make are splashed on major media network news......and we all eventually suffer by their hands.  But that's OK---because the Feds allow for legal discrimination by hiring these two clowns.....never mind the financial mess they've caused the world.

You can also put in the sniveling weasel backstabbing ambitious worker in this example as well---and come up with the exact same outcome---because THAT's exactly what is happening every business day not only in America.....but to the rest of the planet in the corporate world.

Albeit sad, but true:  The deserving get turned away and passed over by the undeserving in all three these worker examples more often than not.

THAT's how businesses are affected!!!!
