Impact Of The Internet On Organisations
Overview
The internet has reshaped how organisations operate, compete, and grow. From a local shop selling to customers on the other side of the world to a multinational hiring talent without relocating them, connectivity has opened doors that were firmly closed just a few decades ago.
This lesson explores the positive impacts of the internet on organisations, including improved communication, access to global markets, and smarter use of data. It also examines the risks that come with being online, from security breaches to intense competition that has already transformed entire industries.
