The structure and dynamics of the CEO's “small world” of stakeholders. An application to industrial downsizing

Author

Listed:
  • Ferrary, Michel

Abstract

Stakeholder theory highlights that a CEO must perform a social responsibility toward multiple stakeholders (employees, politicians, journalists, citizens, etc.). These stakeholders constitute a political system and the CEO develops a political strategy to deal with the claims of the different actors.
