Mikee G. Gangcuangco Relaine Bisda Edmond Soriano Darwin John Tolentino Two Alternatives Perspectives of Stakeholder Management a. Zero Sum - the role of management is to look upon the various stakeholder as competing for the organization's resources. In essence, the gain of one individual or group is the loss of another individual or group.
b. Stakeholder symbiosis - way on how an organization
achieved a mutual benefits. The stakeholder are dependent upon each other for their success and well-being. Ensuring Coherence in Strategic Direction Employees and managers throughout the organization must strive towards common goals and objectives. By specifying desired results, it becomes much easier to move forward. Otherwise no one knows what the firms is striving to accomplish, they have no idea of what to work toward. As nautical expression puts it, “No wind favors the ship that has no charted course”. Organizational Vision A vision is a goal that is “ masssively inspiring, overaching and long term”. It represent destination that driven by and evokes passion. As Mark Hurd, Hewlett-Packard's CEO, pointed out “Without execution, vision is just another word for hallucination” One of the famous example of a vision is: Disneyland's “To be the happiest place on earth” Other examples are: “Restoring patients to full life”. (Medtronic) “We want to satisfy all of our customers, finacial needs and help them succeed financially.” ( Wells Fargo) “Our vision is to the world's best quick service restaurant.” (Mcdonald's) Vision may also fail for many reason. Examples are: The walk doesn't match the talk. Irrelevance Too much focused leads to opportunities. Mission Statements A company's mission statement differs from its vision in that it encompasses both the purpose of the company as well as the basis of competition and comptutve advantage.
