CHAPTER 2
Stakeholder Relationships, Social
Responsibility, and Corporate Governance

SUMMARY
In this chapter, first we identify stakeholders’ different roles in business ethics. We examine the
relationships between businesses and various stakeholder groups and examine how a stakeholder
framework can help us understand organizational ethics. Then we define social responsibility and
examine the relationships between having a stakeholder orientation and social responsibility. Next, we
delineate how a stakeholder orientation helps to create corporate social responsibility. We then examine
corporate governance as a dimension of social responsibility and its role in structuring ethics and social
responsibility in business. The ethical decision making process is covered in order to provide an
understanding of the importance of oversight in responding to stakeholders. Finally, we provide the
steps for implementing a stakeholder perspective in creating both social responsibility and ethical
decisions in business.

INSTRUCTOR NOTES FOR “AN ETHICAL DILEMMA”

Carla’s dilemma is whether to report her superior’s “moonlighting” to higher authorities. Jack had
begun taking on additional work as a means of retaliating against his superiors after being denied a
partner’s position. Jack’s outside consulting work may be taking away business from Aker & Aker
Accounting (A&A), even though he claims that his outside clients are not within A&A’s market area.
Students may want to discuss the implied threat to Carla, as well as her own minor infractions of the
rules. Most will agree that Jack’s behavior is in flagrant disregard to the overall integrity of A&A’s
business practices. Students should also discuss Jack’s rationalization of his behavior. It is common for
people to make bad choices when they feel economic, family, or on-the-job pressures. Students may
want to explore the ramifications of Carla exposing Jack and the potential problems that could occur if
A&A decided to let her go. The instructor may wish to point out that some whistle-blowers have
discouraged others from becoming whistleblowers themselves because of the tremendous physical and
psychological pressures that it invokes; yet, when asked if they would do it again, the response is
invariably yes. Carla may be correct in assuming that she would be retaliated against for bringing up the
situation with Jack without having ample evidence first.

LECTURE OUTLINE
I. Stakeholders Define Ethical Issues in Business
A. Building effective relationships is considered one of the more important areas of business
today. A stakeholder framework helps identify the internal stakeholders such as employees,
boards of directors, and managers and external stakeholders such as customers, special interest
groups, regulators, and others who agree, collaborate, and have confrontations on ethical
issues.
B. In a business context, customers, investors and shareholders, employees, suppliers,
government agencies, communities, and others who have a “stake” or claim in some aspect of
a company’s products, operations, markets, industry, and outcomes are known as
stakeholders.

 Chapter 2: Stakeholder Relationships, Social Responsibility, and Corporate Governance 9

1.
The relationship between companies and their stakeholders is a two-way street.
Stakeholders are influenced by business, but they also have the ability to affect
businesses.
a. Stakeholders apply their values and standards to many diverse issues—working
conditions, consumer rights, environmental conservation, product safety, and proper
information disclosure—that may or may not directly affect an individual
stakeholder’s own welfare.
b. Stakeholders provide both tangible and intangible resources that can be critical to a
firm’s long-term success.
2. When individual stakeholders share similar expectations about desirable business
conduct, they may choose to organize into communities.
3. Ethical misconduct can damage a firm’s reputation, causing stakeholders to withdraw
valuable resources. This gives stakeholders power over businesses.
C. Identifying Stakeholders
1. Stakeholders can be divided into two categories.
a. Primary stakeholders are those whose continued association is necessary for a
firm’s survival (employees, customers, investors, and stockholders, governments and
communities that provide necessary infrastructure).
b. Secondary stakeholders do not typically engage in transactions and are not
essential for its survival (the media, trade associations, and special-interest groups).
c. Although primary groups may present more day-to-day concerns, secondary groups
cannot be ignored or given less consideration in the ethical decision-making process.
2. The stakeholder interaction model indicates that there are two-way relationships
between the firm and a host of stakeholders.
D. A Stakeholder Orientation
1. The degree to which a firm understands and addresses stakeholder demands can be
expressed as a stakeholder orientation.
2. A stakeholder orientation comprises three sets of activities.
a. The organization-wide generation of data about stakeholder groups and assessment
of the firm’s effects on these groups.
b. The distribution of this information throughout the firm.
c. The organization’s responsiveness as a whole to this intelligence.
3. A stakeholder orientation is not complete unless it includes activities that address
stakeholder issues.
4. Responsiveness processes may involve the participation of the concerned stakeholder
groups. It can be viewed as a continuum as firms adopt a stakeholder orientation to
varying degrees.
II. Social Responsibility and the Importance of a Stakeholder Orientation
A. From the perspective of social responsibility, business ethics embodies values, norms, and
expectations that reflect concerns of major stakeholders, including consumers, employees,
shareholders, suppliers, competitors, and the community.
B. Many businesspeople and scholars have questioned the role of ethics and social responsibility
in business because legal and economic responsibilities are accepted as the most important
determinants of performance.
1. Adam Smith’s original form of capitalism, which reemphasizes stakeholder concerns and
issues, is regaining popularity in the 21st century.
2. Ethics and social responsibility cannot be just a reactive approach to issues as they arise.
3. A description of corporate social responsibility should include rights and duties,
consequences and values.

III. Social Responsibility and Ethics

A. The concepts of ethics and social responsibility are often used interchangeably, although each
has a distinct meaning.
1. Social responsibility is an organization’s obligation to maximize its positive impact on
stakeholders and minimize negative impacts. It can be viewed as a contract with society
2. Business ethics involves carefully thought out rules or heuristics of business conduct that
guide decision making.
B. Employee satisfaction, consumer loyalty, and other stakeholder concerns can be quantified to a
limited degree.
1. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has tried to establish a corporate
responsibility guideline, the ISO 26000, which is meant to promote a common
understanding of social responsibility.
2. ISO 14000 is an environmental regulation standard businesses can adopt to help them
reduce their carbon footprints, pollution, and waste.
C. There are four levels of social responsibility—economic, legal, ethical, and philanthropic—and
they can be viewed as steps.
D. The term corporate citizenship is often used to express the extent to which businesses
strategically meet the economic, legal, ethical, and philanthropic responsibilities placed on
them by their various stakeholders.
1. Corporate citizenship has four interrelated dimensions:
a. Strong sustained economic performance
b. Rigorous compliance
c. Ethical actions beyond what the law requires
d. Voluntary contributions that advance the reputation and stakeholder commitment of
the organization.
2. Reputation is one of an organization’s greatest intangible assets with tangible value. The
value of a positive reputation is difficult to quantify, but it is very important.
IV. Corporate Governance Provides Formalized Responsibility to Stakeholders
A. Today, the failure to balance stakeholder interests can result in a failure to maximize
shareholders’ wealth. Directors and corporate officers have a duty of care, or duty of diligence,
to make informed and prudent decisions on behalf of their stakeholders and the organization.
B. To remove the opportunity for employees to make unethical decisions, most companies have
developed formal systems of accountability, oversight, and control—known as corporate
governance.
1. Accountability refers to how closely workplace decisions are aligned with a firm’s stated
strategic direction and its compliance with ethical and legal considerations. Oversight
provides a system of checks and balances that limit employees’ and managers’
opportunities to deviate from policies and strategies and that prevent unethical and illegal
activities. Control is the process of auditing and improving organizational decisions and
actions.
2. A clear delineation of accountability helps employees, customers, investors, government
regulators, and other stakeholders understand why and how the organization chooses and
achieves its goals.
3. Corporate governance establishes fundamental systems and processes for preventing and
detecting misconduct, for investigating and disciplining, and for recovery and continuous
improvement. It should interface with the corporation’s governance structure.
C. Views of Corporate Governance
1. The shareholder model of corporate governance is founded in classic economic
precepts, including the goal of maximizing wealth for investors and owners.
a. Focuses on developing and improving the formal system for maintaining
performance accountability between top management and the firms’ shareholders.
