1. The Stakeholder Model Theory
The stakeholder model was researched broadly in these years due to the importance of the decisions taken by the firm for different stakeholder groups (E. Jansson, 2005). Stakeholder is an entity that is benefited or burdened by the actions of a corporation or whose actions may benefit or burden the corporation (Steiner/Steiner, 1985). Clarkson (1995) distinguishes between primary and secondary stakeholders. The primary stakeholders include stockholders, customers, employees, communities and governments. The secondary stakeholders include earth’s biosphere, religious groups, political parties, unions, creditors, political interest groups, trade associations, suppliers, competitors, media, educational institutions, future generations and the poor.
Managers do not find it difficult to understand the concepts and models of stakeholder management. (Clarkson, Max B E, 1995) Stakeholder management is increasingly a key factor for improving business performance (Rienk Goodijk, 2003). Managers can no longer be held responsible for maximizing returns to shareholders at the expense of other primary stakeholder groups. (Clarkson, Max B E, 1995) Sillanpa (1998) found that companies which delegated more to their employees provided better service to customers, faster innovation and faster reactions to changes, increased productivity and competitiveness. Many companies have tried to apply the

A stakeholder is a person or a group of individual who are interested in the success of a business in delivering successful results and maintaining the activity of the businesses products and services. There are internal and external stakeholders in every company. An internal stakeholder is someone who is internally connected to the business that have personal interests which they may follow. An external stakeholder can be a person or a group of people such as investors, customers, suppliers, people who are predisposed by the business but are not fully in the business.
In today’s world for any business to be successful it needs to be a sustainable enterprise. There are a number of ways to achieve sustainability using a number of different methods. A key aspect of sustainability for any business is Stakeholder Engagement. Only by reaching out to all of their stakeholders will a business be able to create a competitive advantage while still being sustainable.
Stakeholder theory looks at the relationships between an organization and others in its internal and external environment. It also looks at how these relationships affect how the organization conducts its activities. You can think of a stakeholder as a person or organization that can affect or be affected by your organization. Stakeholders can come from inside or outside of the
The stakeholder theory made popular by Ed Freeman (1984) does seem to represent a major advance over the classical view (Freeman, 1984). It might seem inappropriate to refer to the stakeholder position as neoclassical. Bowie (1991: 56-66) has defined stakeholders as a group whose existence was necessary for the survival of the firm--stockholders, employees, customers, suppliers, the local community, and managers themselves.
Each stakeholder has a different criterion of responsiveness, because they have a different interest in the organization. Most organizations are similarly influenced by a variety of stakeholder groups. Investors, shareholders, employees, customers and suppliers are considered primary stakeholders, without whom the organization cannot survive. Other important stakeholders are the community, which have become increasing important in recent year.
Stakeholders are individuals or groups that partake, or assert, possession, privileges, or benefits in a, organization and its accomplishments, previously currently, and in the upcoming (Barrett, 2001). These requested privileges or benefits are the result of communications with, or activities reserved by the organization, and they must be lawful or ethical, separate or combined Stakeholders with comparable benefits, entitlements, or privileges can be categorized as fitting into the similar collection: personnel, investors, and clients (Barrett, 2001). The better the impact these groups have on client’s lives and the extra community assets with which they are assigned, and it becomes vital that they are responsible (Barrett, 2001).
A stakeholder is a party that has an interest in a company. It may affect by the business or organization actions. Typically, the prime stakeholders are customers and employees. Patagonia is eco-friendly clothes are gaining the support of consumers and non-governmental organizations in the U.S. Since the company is a certified B Corp, they provide workers with certain benefits, the community and the environment. Patagonia outdoor clothing and gear retailer is well known for sustainability. They protect the environment and inspire social change. The company overall environmental and social performance is measured and independently verified a third party. Patagonia believes that full of practice transparency will be the ones in the future rewarded
A strong believer in his reconceptualized Stakeholder Theory of the Modern Corporation, R. Edward Freeman believes the key to success in business is
The purpose of this paper is to recognize the definition and what a stakeholder is and what it does. I will also explain the two groups of the stakeholders and put the stakeholders in the group where they belong. I will explain what the stakeholders responsibilities are, what their ethical responsibilities to the company. Will explain what would be the appropriate response to the situation in the company. And finally explain what Joe should propose to the management team and how Joe should support his proposal.
Stakeholder is anyone with an interest in a business. Stakeholder can be individuals, groups or even organisations that are affected by the activity of the business, they include:
A stakeholder is someone who someone who benefits or is burdened by a corporation, or someone who the corporation benefits or is burdened by. (Steiner). Stakeholders are represented by two main groups; primary and secondary
In general ,the stakeholder approach may be more conducive to balancing a wide variety of corporate interests and thereby discouraging impropriety.Executives and boards should take the perceptions of both shareholders and stakeholders into account when formulating strategy and enunciate their stance in all organizational communications. Only within that kind of clearly delineated context, can managers be expected to make appropriate decisions. Indeed, some of the most successful businesses are those which have embraced stakeholder values for example Bodyshop. However, we see that generally, shareholder value
Stakeholders are people or groups with interest in an organization that can affect or be affected by the organization itself, its objectives, or its policies (BusinessDictionary, 2015). Each stakeholder brings their own perspective to the table based on their relationship with the organization (e.g. internal or external role), their level of experience, and their area of expertise about the subject matter they are involved with. At a high level, the list of stakeholders for any organization could include people or groups such as: customers, employees, government agencies, suppliers, unions, community resources, shareholders, and business owners. For the purpose of this assignment, I will discuss and review stakeholders relative to the
