The Stakeholder Podcast

The Stakeholder Podcast aims to take stakeholder thinking to a broader audience. It's hosted by Ed Freeman, professor of business administration and "father" of stakeholder thinking and will feature a variety of guests. Stakeholder thinking about business means that every business creates (and sometimes destroys) value for customers, suppliers, employees, communities and financiers. Successful stakeholder thinking is about finding Win-win-win solutions to problems. Produced by Ben Freeman.
