“…This suggests that stakeholder attributes help to define the salience of a stakeholder. Hence, an understanding of stakeholder salience has significant effect in using stakeholder attributes such as influence and power, urgency, and legitimacy, which help in the process of identifying key or relevant stakeholders (Mitchell et al, 1997;Magness, 2008). Table 2 reveals the various attributes or elements that scholars have refer to since the pronouncement of stakeholder theory within management discipline (Clarkson 1995;Achterkamp & Vos, 2008).…”

The Nigerian oil and gas industry (NOGI) has over time been dominated by the Nigerian government and oil producing companies (OPCs). The influences of the community stakeholder on OPCs in the last three decades have been expressed in diverse ways by different community sub-groups through their concerns and interests, some of which have severely impacted on the NOGI. Community within this context is categorised as a primary stakeholder, while the sub-groups are secondary stakeholders that emerge from within the community. Hence, the success of the NOGI largely depends on the Nigerian government and the oil producing companies, and other players such as Non-Governmental Organisations recognising the community as a key player and having appropriate knowledge of the different sub-groups of secondary stakeholders within the community in order to understand their intentions, behaviour, interests, influences and interrelations. Such knowledge is relevant to the NOGI's formulation of future oil and gas strategy.This study commences with an overview of the primary stakeholders (i.e. the Nigerian government, OPC and the community), their respective activities, participation and the link between these stakeholders with a specific focus on the NOGI context. Subsequently, various sub-groups of secondary stakeholders within the community and their respective interest(s) are identified in detail.

Companies have to continue with their businesses in the current uncertain environment triggered by the economic crisis. Since the decrease in the performance of companies is a reality, academicians, managers and entrepreneur are worried about what may be happening with Corporate Social Responsibility.Because of the strong impact of the crisis on Spain, we are going to study its effect on the CSR behaviour of Spanish companies. Therefore, we analyse whether the performance of the company, as well as some shareholding characteristics, influence CSR before and during the crisis.The results show that large Spanish companies continue to carry out CSR actions despite the effects of the crisis on their financial health. It seems that shareholders are more influential than managers in these strategic and entrepreneurial decisions. Additionally, the presence of a reference shareholder means that companies are more committed to CSR, although a higher percentage of insider shareholders cause the contrary effect.

“…Por lo tanto cuando se habla de la intensidad de los intentos de influencia de los grupos de interés de la organización sobre el líder, este concepto se puede entender como la relevancia que un grupo de interés puede tener sobre un líder. Así pues, en el diseño del cuestionario para valorar los atributos de los grupos de interés, se ha tomado como base el planteamiento de los atributos (poder, legitimidad y urgencia) propuesto por Mitchell et al (1997) y que ha sido validado por estudios recientes (Magness, 2008;Myllykangas et al, 2010); y con el objetivo de hacer congruente la medición con el modelo planteado en la fase 3, se incorpora la variable frecuencia de los intentos de influencia, que originalmente también fue sugerida por Homans (1961) al referirse a la intensidad y frecuencia de los intentos de influencia.…”

ResumenEn este artículo se validan los constructos de un cuestionario propuesto para valorar los atributos (poder, legitimidad y urgencia) de grupos de interés universitarios. Desde una perspectiva subjetiva y un enfoque de relaciones, se recogió la percepción de una muestra de líderes de universidades públicas de Manizales (Colombia). Se conformaron dos grupos de constructos; el primero recoge los atributos de los grupos de interés universitarios y el segundo recoge la relevancia de éstos. Los resultados de los alfa de Cronbach indican que es factible medir de manera eficaz los constructos propuestos. Se concluye que, desde el nivel de análisis individual, el cuestionario propuesto cuenta con la coherencia interna y la fiabilidad de medida necesaria para valorar los atributos de los grupos de interés universitarios. En este análisis se considera que el contexto organizacional determina sus grupos de interés y que la percepción de los líderes determina la relevancia de los atributos. Palabras clave: grupos de interés universitarios, liderazgo participativo, valoración de atributos Design of a Questionnaire to Assess University Stakeholders Attributes from a Participative Leadership Approach AbstractIn this paper the constructs of a proposed questionnaire that assess the university stakeholders attributes (power, legitimacy and urgency) are validated. From a subjective perspective and a relational approach, the perceptions of a sample of public universities leaders from Manizales (Colombia) were collected. Two groups of constructs were formed, the first includes the university stakeholders attributes mentioned above and the second collects their relevance. The Cronbach alpha values indicate that is feasible to measure effectively the proposed constructs. It is concluded that, from an individual level of analysis, the proposed questionnaire has the internal consistency and the measure reliability for assessing the university stakeholders attributes. In this analysis, it is considered that the organizational context determines its stakeholders and that leaders´ perceptions determine the relevance of the attributes.
