 STAKEHOLDERS
A STAKEHOLDER CAN BE DEFINED AS AN ENTITY (A PERSON OR GROUP OR
AN ORGANIZATION ) WHICH HAS A STAKE IN THE ORGANISATION. THIS STAKE
CAN BE DIRECT OR INDIRECT. SOME OF THE MAJOR STAKEHOLDERS OF AN
ORGANISATION ARE ITS EMPLOYEES, ITS DIRECTORS, CREDITORS,
SUPPLIERS, THE OWNERS, CUSTOMERS, THE GOVERNMENT AND THE
COMMUNITY AT LARGE. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE STAKEHOLDER
AND THE ORGANISATION IS TWO-FOLD. ON ONE HAND, THE STAKEHOLDER
HAS THE POWER TO INFLUENCE THE DECISIONS, POLICIES, ACTIONS AND
PRACTISES OF THE ORGANISATION, WHILE ON THE OTHER HAND THEY ALSO
GET INFLUENCED BY THESE FACTORS.
 CLASSIFICATION OF STAKEHOLDERS

ON THE BASIS OF RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ORGANISATION, STAKEHOLDERS CAN

BE CLASSING INTO TWO MAJOR GROUPS:

1. INTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS:-
THE PEOPLE THAT ARE INSIDE THE ORGANISATION, OR THAT WORK DIRECTLY
WITH THE ORGANISATION, ARE KNOWN AS INTERNAL STAKEHOLDER.
SOME MAJOR INTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

1. SHAREHOLDERS: SHAREHOLDERS ARE THE INDIVIDUALS OR

COMPANIES WHO HOLD THE SHARES OF THE ORGANISATION. HENCE, THEY ARE
CALLED THE "OWNERS OF THE BUSINESS". SHAREHOLDERS ARE TREATED AS
THE MEMBERS OF THE ORGANISATION THESE SHAREHOLDERS INVEST IN THE
ORGANISATION SO AS TO HELP THE ORGANISATION IN REALISING ITS
OBJECTIVES. THE ORGANISATION'S PRIME RESPONSIBILITY IS TO FULFIL THE
INTERESTS OF SHAREHOLDERS. THE SHAREHOLDER GET THE SHARE IN THE
PROFITS AS A RETURN FOR THE INVESTMENTS MADE BY THEM.
 2. WORKERS/EMPLOYEES: WORKERS OR EMPLOYEES ARE THE PEOPLE WHO WORK IN
THE ORGANISATION, AND IN RETURN THEY EXPECT REMUNERATION, BENEFITS, SECURITY, ETC.
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EMPLOYEES AND THE ORGANISATION IS BASED ON THE
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT. EMPLOYEES CONTRIBUTE THEIR TIME AND EFFORTS FOR THE BENEFIT OF
THE ORGANISATION, WHICH IN TURN POSES CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS ON THE ORGANISATION.

IT BECOMES THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ORGANISATION TO FULFIL ITS DUTIES

REGARDING ITS EMPLOYEES. ONE OF THE MAJOR RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE ORGANISATION
TOWARDS ITS EMPLOYEES IS TO TREAT THEM AS HUMAN BEINGS AND ACKNOWLEDGING THEIR
SIGNIFICANCE AS A VALUABLE RESOURCE FOR ACHIEVING ORGANISATIONAL GOALS.
3. MANAGEMENT: MANAGEMENT OF AN ORGANISATION AFFECTS THE
ORGANISATION AS WELL AS OTHER STAKEHOLDERS. MANAGEMENT IS RELATED
WITH THE ORGANISATION THROUGH AN IMPLICIT OR EXPLICIT CONTRACT. THE
MAJOR RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANAGEMENT IS TO MAINTAIN THE
OPERATIONS OF AN ORGANISATION AS WELL AS TO MAKE STRATEGIES FOR THE
WELL-BEING OF THE ORGANISATION. MANAGEMENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
HARMONISING THE DIFFERENT ENTITLEMENTS OF THE STAKEHOLDERS.
2.EXTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS:
THE INDIVIDUALS, GROUPS OR COMPANIES THAT AN OUTSIDE THE ORGANISATION
AND WORK INDIRECTLY WITH THE ORGANISATION ARE KNOW AS EXTERNAL
STAKEHOLDERS. EXTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS CAN INFLUENCE AND B
STAKEHOLDERS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1.CUSTOMERS: CUSTOMERS OR CONSUMERS ARE THE PEOPLE OR
ORGANISATIONS THE PURCHASE THE PRODUCTS OF THE ORGANISATION. HENCE,
CUSTOMERS ARE ONE THE MAIN SOURCES OF REVENUE FOR ANY BUSINESS. AS
THESE EARNINGS ARE IT INVESTED IN VARIOUS BUSINESS ACTIVITIES,
THEREFORE, CUSTOMERS ARE THE LA ASSET INVOLVED INDIRECTLY IN THE NEW
PRODUCTSERVICE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. CUSTOMERS MAXIMISE THE SALES OF
THE ORGANISATION BY PURCHASING ITS PRODUCTS AND BY SPREADING POSITIVE
A WORD-OF-MOUTH. HENCE, SATISFYING CUSTOMERS IS ONE OF MOST IMPORTANT
GOALS FOR AN ORGANISATION TO SURVIVE IN THE LONG-RUN.
2.SUPPLIERS: SUPPLIERS ARE THOSE INDIVIDUALS OR BUSINESS OWNERS THAT
SUPPLY THE RAW MATERIALS OR SEMI-FINISHED GOODS TO THE ORGANISATION FOR
THE FINAL PRODUCTION PROCESS. SOME SUPPLIERS THAT DELIVER FINISHED GOODS
TO THE CUSTOMERS ARE CALLED DISTRIBUTORS. THE QUALITY AND VALUE OF END-
PRODUCT IS DEFINED BY THE MATERIAL PROVIDED BY THE SUPPLIERS. THEREFORE,
BUSINESS DEALINGS WITH THE SUPPLIERS SHOULD BE TREATED WISELY BY THE
ORGANISATION. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE ORGANISATION TO DEVELOP GOOD
RELATIONS WITH THE SUPPLIERS THROUGH WHICH THE PRODUCTION COSTS CAN BE
MINIMISED WHILE PRODUCTIVITY AND QUALITY CAN BE MAXIMISED.
3.CREDITORS: THE COMPANIES THAT PROVIDE RAW MATERIALS OR SEMI-
FINISHED GOODS ON CREDIT TO THE ORGANISATION ARE CALLED AS CREDITORS.
IF THE ORGANISATION DOES NOT PAY THE DUE AMOUNT IN TIME, THEN THE
BUSINESS IS AT A RISK OF LOSING ITS COMPETITIVE EDGE, AS JUDICIOUS
RELATION BETWEEN THE ORGANISATION AND ITS SUPPLIERS IS ONE OF THE
MAJOR SOURCES OF SUCCESS. IN CASE OF DISSATISFACTION, THE SUPPLIERS CAN
AFFECT THE BUSINESS OF AN ORGANISATION BY DISCONTINUING THE SUPPLY OF
GOODS OR BY SUPPLYING POOR QUALITY GOODS.
4.COMPETITORS: THE ORGANISATION IS GRATEFUL TO ITS COMPETITORS AS IT
IS TOWARDS ITS STAKEHOLDERS. ANY COMPETITIVE STRATEGY ADOPTED BY THE
FIRM CAN POSITIVELY OR NEGATIVELY AFFECT THE OPERATIONS OF ITS
COMPETITORS AND VICE VERSA. HENCE, AN ORGANISATION SHOULD ALWAYS
ADOPT ETHICAL MEASURES FOR SURVIVAL IN THE COMPETITIVE MARKET.
