Answer to Question 1

The four general approaches to dealing with stakeholders are the confrontation, damage control, accommodation, and proactive strategies. The confrontation strategy is used with a stakeholder group whose goals are perceived to threaten company performance; the firm may use the courts, engage in public relations, or lobby against legislation. Damage control is a means a firm may use to deal with a stakeholder group when it decides that it may have made mistakes and wants to improve its relationship with the stakeholders and to elevate its public image. Accommodation is a means of dealing with stakeholder groups when a firm decides to accept social responsibility for its business decisions after pressure has been exerted by stakeholder groups. And the proactive strategy is a means of dealing with stakeholders when a firm determines that it wants to go beyond stakeholder expectations.
