different stakeholders make different demands on business

employees want stable employment & fair pay

owners want satisfactory ROI and stock appreciation over time

customers want value & quality for dollar spent

suppliers want regular orders for goods & prompt pay

competitors want to gain market share and see industry grow

community wants to employ local residents, develop land, and protect environment

media wants to keep public informed about health & well-being

social activists want to monitor company actions and ensure that they comply with ethical and legal standards

government wants to raise revenue through taxes and promote economic development

general public wants to protect societal values and minimize risks, achieve prosperity

reciprocal duties exist among business's stakeholders (if business is to act responsibly, consumers have an obligation to make consumption choices based on social responsibility, and employees must make career choices in a responsible fashion) – arrows in BOTH directions

Stakeholder Analysis

Who are our stakeholders and what are their stakes (interest, right, ownership)?

What relationship does each stakeholder have with other stakeholders in the situation, dependent on and independent of our firm?

What attributes (legitimacy, urgency, power) does each stakeholders hold?

What economic, legal, ethical, and philanthropic responsibilities does our firm have to each stakeholder?

What actions (collaborate, involve, monitor, defend) should our firm take to best manage our stakeholders and resolve the situation?

Legitimacy refers to the perceived validity of the stakeholder’s claim to a stake

Power refers to the ability or capacity of a stakeholder to produce an effect

Urgency refers to the degree to which the stakeholder’s claim demands immediate attention

Legitimacy, Power, Urgency:

A Typology of Stakeholder Attributes

Typology of Stakeholder Attributes

Dormant Stakeholders - Possess power to impose their will through coercive, utilitarian or symbolic means, but have little or no interaction/involvement as they lack legitimacy or urgency.

Discretionary Stakeholders - Likely to be recipients of corporate philanthropy. No pressure on managers to engage with this group, but they may choose to do so.

Demanding Stakeholders - Those with urgent claims, but no legitimacy or power. Irritants for management, but viewed as not worth considering. People with unjustified grudges, serial complainers or low return customers.

Dominant Stakeholders - Likely to have a formal mechanism in place acknowledging the relationship with the organization or project e.g. Boards of Directors, HR department, public relations.

Dangerous Stakeholders – Those with powerful and urgent claims will be coercive and possibly violent. For example, employee sabotage or coercive/unlawful tactics used by activists.

Dependent Stakeholders – Stakeholders who lack the power to enforce their stake. For example, animals impacted by the BP oil spill. Advocacy of their interests by dominant stakeholders can make them definitive.

Definitive Stakeholders - An expectant stakeholder who gains the relevant missing attribute. Often dominant stakeholders with an urgent issue, or dependent groups with powerful legal support.

What moral responsibilities does the firm have to each of its stakeholders?

Philanthropic Responsibilities Be a good corporate citizen.

Ethical Responsibilities Be ethical.

Legal Responsibilities Obey the law.

Economic Responsibilities Be profitable.

The Issues

Mariner 1 project reuses existing pipes

Much of the pipe dates from 1932 – 82 years old

Pressure to increase pressure from 800 to approximately 1,500 psi

18 new pump stations and 17 valve control stations

Scheduled for use for middle of 2015 for 70,00 barrels/day pure propane

No financial benefit to impacted communities, as 90% committed to shippers

Mariner 2 announced and has committed shippers

Official filings with the DEP as of April 2015

Increased demands for infrastructure buildup in the southeastern PA region

Scheduled to carry 275,000 barrels/day pure liquid ethane by 2016

Chester County Pipeline Congestion

Sunoco Facility

The Issues

Sunoco proposes a pump station in a residential zoned district that is highly populated

Plan to construct a building to house the pumping equipment

Purpose is to protect machinery

Reduce noise

The facility will have a 30 foot combustion unit

Residents told flare will operate sporadically; actual proposal is 24/7

Also used for maintenance purposes

Local zoning versus Public Utility Commission (PUC)
