Can or should God be considered a managerial stakeholder? While at first glance such a proposition might seem beyond the norms of stakeholder management theory or traditional management practice, further investigation suggests that there might be both theoretical and practical support for such a notion. This paper will make the argument that God both is and should be considered a managerial stakeholder for those businesspeople and business firms that accept that God exists and can affect the world. In doing so, part one of the paper first discusses the growth of religion and spirituality within the business and academic communities. Part two raises several arguments based on stakeholder theory and business reality to support the notion of God as a managerial stakeholder. Part three addresses the arguments against God as a managerial stakeholder. Part four discusses the managerial implications of considering God as a managerial stakeholder. The paper concludes with its limitations. 相似文献

It has become evident that Western concepts of business and management must be evaluated within their realms of application. The objective of this research was to analyze the effects of stakeholder attributes of power, legitimacy, and urgency on the stakeholder salience of shareholders, employees, customers, and community in state-owned and privatized firms in Tanzania. In general, the framework developed and used in Western studies proved useful in characterizing Tanzanian management perceptions toward stakeholders. That is, when using a common questionnaire, results were obtained that linked stakeholder saliency with underlying attributes. Nevertheless, the saliency profile for stakeholders was different in the Tanzanian culture from previous studies in the United States and Spain. In a Tanzanian context, employees, customers, and community attained inferior status compared to the results obtained in developed countries for which the theory had been developed. Profiles were also different in comparing state-owned and privatized firms in Tanzania. Results indicated that the effects on salience are similar for shareholders but different for the remaining stakeholder groups in the two categories of firms. Some policy recommendations are made as a consequence of observations, and the need for further work is acknowledged. 相似文献

Stakeholder Multiplicity: Toward an Understanding of the Interactions between Stakeholders 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
While stakeholder theory has traditionally considered organization’s interactions with stakeholders in terms of independent,
dyadic relationships, recent scholarship has pointed to the fact that organizations exist within a complex network of intertwining
relationships [e.g., Rowley, T. J.: 1997, The Academy of Management Review
22(4), 887–910]. However, further theoretical and empirical development of the interactions between stakeholders has been lacking. In this paper, we develop a framework for understanding and measuring the effects upon the
organization of competing, complementary and cooperative stakeholder interactions, which we refer to as stakeholder multiplicity.
We draw upon three forms of fit (i.e. fit as matching, fit as moderation, and fit as gestalts; Venkatraman, N.: 1989) to develop
a framework for understanding stakeholder multiplicity based upon the direction, strength, and synergies of the interacting
claims. Additionally, we draw upon the theory of stakeholder identification and salience of Mitchell et al. (1997), which
we argue provides a more relevant and significantly more illustrative explanation of the nature and effects of stakeholder
interactions upon the organization than the network approach of Rowley (1997). Furthermore, we ground our framework through
reference to three stakeholder groups (i.e. governments, customers, and employees) and the stakeholder issue of concern for
the natural environment. We propose a hierarchy of the multiplicity strength of influence of these three stakeholder groups.
Potential measurement and implications are discussed. 相似文献
