Module 6 - Business Report Stakeholders Discussion Post

Q In this module, we discuss how you need to consider stakeholders with your business reports. Let’s discuss what a stakeholder is with an example. Describe the specific characteristics of a direct, indirect, and remote stakeholder using an example from your work experience. The discussion forums are designed to simulate live class discussions, so please use your own words and give a substantive reply to at least 2 peers to earn full credit. This is a "post first" forum, which means you must first post your response to the discussion prompt before you can see any other posts. Posting a blank response will result in a zero score. 60% of the points are awarded for your initial response to the prompt, 20% for your first substantive response to a peer, and 20% for a second substantive response to a peer. To earn full credit the original post must be a minimum of 6 substantial sentences. The replies (try to pick students that do not yet have replies, if possible) need to be at least 3 substantial sentences adding to the post. Good job or I agree does not count.

Direct stakeholders are involved in the day-to-day activities of an organization. The best example of a direct stakeholder are the employees who keep the system up and running by working on projects, meeting deadlines, serving the client. On the other hand, indirect shareholders are those who do not bother in what is happening on a day-to-day level, rather they are more interested in the outcome of the production or in simpler language, the profit-loss equation.
