It can also encourage workers to consider the needs of customers and suppliers, the ignoring of which will tend to eventually harm the company and its shareholders. I.e., it is not always a weasel word.
Again, you're thinking of an "agile" stakeholder- not a "stakeholder capitalism" stakeholder.
Why is this so difficult for you to grasp?
Because I personally haven't come across writings or speakings AFAICR in which "stakeholder" is used as a weasel word.
I will avoid the word now that I've had this conversation.
In business managerial side of operations, "stakeholder" is definitely a weasel word.
The word "stakeholder" in "stakeholder capitalism" as used by the World Economic Forum literally means "every single person on Earth". Unless you think Klaus Schwab also considers the possibility of life in the Andromeda Galaxy, it doesn't get anymore nebulous than that. The word "nebulous" describes something cloudy and ginormous- like a nebula.
I'm not trying to give you a hard time, but the rarity of the exception justifies the rule.
