A STEEPLE analysis is a concept used to scrutinise the macro-environment factors of a business to help organisations make informed competitive and strategic decisions. By understanding these environments, organisations can maximise their business opportunities and minimize any perceived threats to their organisation.
All published sources used should be acknowledged and correctly referenced, using the Harvard referencing system.
