Hi, I am using both OT notes and BPP textbook to study F1 and I am a bit confused about
the Chapter 5 An organisation’s stakeholders.
Are shareholders ‘connected’ or ‘internal’ stakeholders?
Because in the BPP it says shareholders are connected but OT notes and test say they are internal. Which one is right?
At the end of the day, it doesn’t much matter. Internal stakeholders can be defined as those intimately connected with the organisation. Certainly employees and directors are, but so too could shareholders if they are very hands-on. They own the company and can sack the directors.
For the exam it’s probably better to go with the idea that shareholders are connected: that seems to be the more common, though somewhat arbitrary, classification
