Fractional Glossary Terms

stayk-hohl-der (noun) A stakeholder is any person, group, or organisation that has a vested interest in or is affected by the outcomes of a business decision, project, or company performance. They range from employees and customers to investors, suppliers, and even local communities who might be impacted by what the business does.

Think: anyone who would actually care if your company succeeded, failed, or made a major change — because it would somehow affect them too.
