While the stakeholder view has an increased cost, many firms have decided that the concept improves their image, increases sales, reduces the risks of liability for corporate negligence, and makes them less likely to be targeted by pressure groups.

Stakeholders may be thought of as groups of individuals or organizations significantly affected by what goes on at an organization, with a stake in having it go well, and for whom the organization wants things to go well in return.

The Stakeholder Scorecard attempts to answer the question of "How are we doing?" from the perspectives of all the key stakeholders, of which senior management or the Stewards of the enterprise is only one.
