Stakeholders in a Business

Stakeholders are the individuals that are affected by business activity and are interested in it. A business has internal and external stakeholders. Internal stakeholders are the people or groups who work directly in a business, e.g employees, owners and investors etc. External stakeholders are the individuals or groups that are not a direct part of the business but are somehow affected by it. Example of external stakeholders are suppliers, society, government, shareholders, creditors and costumers.
