Stakeholder Analysis

Question 1

Task 1

Using appropriate theory, construct a detailed Stakeholder Analysis for Aldi. In your opinion, does Aldi manage to satisfy all of its stakeholders all of the time? Which are the most powerful groups for the company and why? Could any of these groups pose a threat in the future? Use appendices to provide detailed supporting evidence and make sure that you integrate key points from the appendices into your answers.

Task 2

Using the FIRM framework and any other appropriate strategic tools/models, evaluate two recent strategic options that Aldi has followed in NEW international markets (e.g. Southern Australia and California in the US). In light of your answer to task 2, also consider the effect that these strategic options may have on the various stakeholder groups identified. You must provide supporting evidence and reference all sources.

Question 2

Locate an online management article regarding leaders’ responsibilities for training employees. This can be for new hires or for ongoing professional development, but it must be from a legitimate, respected source (do not use sources such as Wikipedia, answers.com, ehow.com, for example). Give a brief summary of what is stated in the article. Do you agree or disagree with the article’s statements? Please provide a reference done in APA format.
