Would like you to think about an organization you have either worked, volunteered, or are a member of, and then consider the following questions: What is the organization and what does the organization do? What the organization's inputs, activities (transformation processes), and outputs?
What organizations, groups, or people are affected by the organization's activities?
What other external organizations or environmental factors (economic, political, social forces) affect your organization's inputs, activities, and outputs? How do they affect your organization?
