Organizational stakeholders

In the 1980s, a change in companies organizational culture began when internal and external actors started to demand more from the companies from whom they acquired goods and services. Actors wanted companies to reflect their core values, or the values that were established the moment when the organization was created; these values also need to reflect the company's organizational culture. These actors were later on given the name of stakeholders, people or groups who have an interest, claim, or stake in the organization. To be more specific, they focus on what a company does and how well it performs.[1] As companies began to maximize their profits, stakeholders became more demanding and influential in the decision-making process. These groups of stakeholders began insisting on a more dynamic, stimulating, and rewarding work environment that would result in better work conditions.
