A multilateral stakeholder salience approach: An extension of the stakeholder identification and salience framework
本文在Mitchell、Agle和Wood的经典利益相关者识别与显著性框架基础上，引入多边利益相关者显著性模型，并用欧洲特许经营企业数据验证其优于原模型，对研究利益相关者参与企业治理的学者有参考价值。
The stakeholder identification and salience framework of Mitchell, Agle, and Wood (MAW) has become one of the most important models of its type in the management and organizational literature. However, its underlying theory and associated empirical methodology have not incorporated previous research results concerning value creation stakeholder theory, which has gained increasing attention in recent years. In this paper, we introduce a modified multilateral stakeholder salience (MSS) model that extends the original salience framework both conceptually and empirically. We compare the results of the proposed MSS model with the original MAW model using data from European franchise firms. Overall, this study contributes to the ongoing debate about the theoretical foundation of stakeholder involvement in firms and networks.
