The owners and heads of companies often make serious financial decisions, both operational and strategic, guided not by traditional criteria for optimality of profitability and risk, but by the desire to satisfy, to one degree or another, the expectations and interests of various interested groups of people both in the company and for its limits. The financial goal of a large corporate structure, in particular an insurance organization, should be formulated on the basis of a balance of interests of all interested parties (stakeholders) of its business in accordance with stakeholder theory. The authors determine the purpose and objectives of this study as the discussion of the nature of the stakeholder approach to the balanced development of economic entities, as well as the insufficient development of methodological approaches to meeting the requirements of stakeholders. The stakeholder’s approach allows us to disclose all key aspects of the functioning of an economic entity, and it could be proved that the corporate governance system of insurance organizations should include a mechanism for identifying and predicting the interests of key stakeholders and building on their basis strategic guidelines for coordinating and satisfying the interests of stakeholders.

“…The salient criterion for this research is cooperative versus non-cooperative IORs. It is possible to separate IORs in terms of the strength of their cooperative and competitive characteristics, a view subscribed to by a number of authors (Blair et al, 2002;Freeman, 1984;Håkansson, 1982;Kotler, 1987;Savage, Nix, Whitehead, & Blair, 1991;Wilkinson & Young, 2002). However, our research focuses on the highly cooperative dimension of IORs.…”

This paper uses a strategy—structure—performance-based model of marketing channel relationship structure to conduct an empirical examination of the involvement of four external stakeholder groups in manufacturing firms' product innovation. The results show that firms' stakeholder orientation (strategy), involvement of stakeholders in product innovation (structure) and quality of stakeholder relationships (performance) are intrinsically linked. Also, the way in which multiple stakeholder groups were involved in manufacturing firms' product innovation was more similar than different.

“…Stakeholder theory (Freeman, 1984) suggests that there are many groups and individuals, other than shareholders, who have stakes in a business and can affect or are affected by the achievement of the organization’s objectives, and without the support of which the organization would not meet its goals (Blair et al , 2002). Health-care organizations have realized the need to take into consideration the perspectives and priorities of their stakeholders and partners so that they can achieve their organizational goals (Ali, 2013).…”

Purpose This study aims to identify barriers to social sustainability in the health-care industry in the United Arab Emirates. Furthermore, the impact of these dimensions on social sustainability is examined. Design/methodology/approach A comprehensive questionnaire has been developed based on semi-structured interviews with different departments of two tertiary hospitals in the first phase. In the second phase, data are collected from ten public and private hospitals situated in the United Arab Emirates. In the third phase, responses are examined using principal component analysis to identify the five major barriers for social sustainability. A measurement model (confirmatory analysis) is developed to examine the relationship among these dimensions. Finally, a structural model is developed to examine the significance of these dimensions to the notion of social sustainability in health care. Findings The statistical model shows a 61 per cent variance for social sustainability, which is caused by infrastructure, organizational culture, lack of coordination, stakeholder’s disparity and uncertainty, which are positively and highly correlated measurement barriers to social sustainability practices implementation. Research limitations/implications Health-care professionals and stakeholders believe that the elimination of obstacles to social sustainability must be multi-dimensional and not limited to specific practices. Practical implications This study would enable health-care industry to examine the extent of obstruction for social sustainability. Hospital administrators and medical professionals could use this feedback to assess and benchmark their performance against that of other competitive hospitals. Originality/value The contribution of this paper is to advance the understanding of social sustainability in the health-care sector by viewing it from the perspective of the stakeholders and the social exchanges that occur among them.
