Book Synopsis Managing for Stakeholders by : R. Edward Freeman
Download or read book Managing for Stakeholders written by R. Edward Freeman and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing for Stakeholders: Survival, Reputation, and Success, the culmination of twenty years of research, interviews, and observations in the workplace, makes a major new contribution to management thinking and practice. Current ways of thinking about business and stakeholder management usually ask the Value Allocation Question: How should we distribute the burdens and benefits of corporate activities among stakeholders? Managing for Stakeholders, however, helps leaders develop a mindset that instead asks the Value Creation Question: How can we create as much value as possible for all of our stakeholders?Business is about how customers, suppliers, employees, financiers (stockholders, bondholders, banks, etc.), communities, the media, and managers interact and create value. World-renowned management scholar R. Edward Freeman and his coauthors outline ten concrete principles and seven practical techniques for managing stakeholder relationships in order to ensure a firm’s survival, reputation, and success. Managing for Stakeholders is a revolutionary book that will change not only how managers do business but also how they recognize and evaluate business opportunities that would otherwise be invisible.

Together, these perspectives capture the complex paradoxes of CSR in developing countries and highlight common features in national institutions across the developing world, such as weak political and regulatory institutions, that shape local CSR initiatives and often limit its developmental impact.The editors argue the need to embrace partnership models that leverage the strengths of different actors to promote effective development and tackle the complex challenges facing the developing world. This important series will be the reference source for academics, practitioners, policy-makers and NGOs involved in development-oriented CSR.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores conceptualizations of CSR and sustainability in the digital economy, focusing upon points of intersection between CSR and online communities. Reflecting on new areas of responsibility that organisations must face in a globalised economy, the contributions explore the ways CSR is being communicated, challenged and reshaped in a rapidly evolving online context. Up-to-date research from around the world shows how diverse communities, citizens and stakeholders are engaging with, and making demands on, organisations in novel ways that pay little respect to international borders. With online communities increasingly influencing the way in which business is carried out and perceived, the case studies explored here offer a useful indication of the variety of new developments and controversies that have emerged in the field of CSR. This book will appeal to postgraduate students and researchers of CSR and CSR communications, as well as communication, public relation and corporate responsibility practitioners.

This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 1,3, Martin Luther University, language: English, abstract: Recently Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) gained pretty much attention in the media and in the business world, mostly because of the corporate scandals, like of Enron or Lehman Brothers, financial market crisis and environmental concerns as well as sequential discussion of CSR and CSR reporting on different levels. This paper answers the questions if CSR reporting is important and significant topic and if so, then why it is important and why the companies are motivated to report. These answers are gained through analysis of the relevant academic literature, with the help of the statistical data and are illustrated with the real world example, CSR report of German telecommunication company Deutsche Telekom AG. The results present that there are few supporting arguments that show that CSR reporting is important to the companies, society and government. Although there are many problems and stumbling points in CSR reporting, which are also partially presented and discussed in this paper, the CSR reporting is of a large interest and is still growing.
