In this session, we continue our exploration of PEST(EL) analysis, focusing on the external environment factors affecting the specialist eateries industry, specifically DD, Starbucks, and McDonald's. Students will participate in a group workshop to apply PEST(EL) concepts and analyze various external influences on these companies. Attendance and engagement are crucial as we discuss relevant theories and case studies, and decide on which lectures and workshops to prioritize. Be sure to complete the required readings from Chapter 3 to enhance understanding and preparedness for class discussions.
