Representing stakeholders Sample Clauses

Representing stakeholders. The third function is that the board needs to assure that corporate activity reflects stakeholder expectations. By doing so, board members make the company look more legitimate in the eyes of key resource providers such as governments, customers, employees and so on. Their connections can be of great importance to the firm (Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, 2003; Langevoort, 2000). The interests of stakeholders are put forward especially in large, older and growing firms (Adams, 2003). Xxxx & Xxxxxxx (2001) explain that different stakeholders expect various roles of the board. Owners are negative about the control role of the board, but positive about its legitimising role. On the other hand, employees are positive about both the control and service role of the board. In contrast to employees, the social environment is a rather passive stakeholder with little attention to board functions. Finally, customers seem to have a lot of interest in the overall control variable. Companies should take these stakeholders more in account by increasing the interaction between the firm and the customers.
