9. Demonstrate Keith owns a white goods repair company, fixing dishwashers, washing machines and other household goods. Keith employs 2 skilled workers who also go to customers houses and fixes appliances on-site. Keith has a business loan with NatWest bank and he is currently repaying them £300 per month. Keith’s main supplier is Argon Appliances who are his main provider for spare parts and replacement machines.

10. Demonstrate In pairs discuss and record the stakeholders for Keith and the effects of the following business decisions he has recently made: Increased annual salary of all employees by 5% Has sourced replacement washing machines from B&Q as it is cheaper than buying from Argon supplies. Allow emergency call out for all customers both evenings and weekends Increased call out charges by 12% in emergencies To buy a new premises in the town centre so he can complete repairs on appliances and store more stock. For each decision say: Who is affected? How that decision might affect them? Is there a conflict of interest?

11. Stakeholder Role Play Split into 4 equal groups (you have 30 seconds to do this!!) Each group will receive a scenario and a range of stakeholder cards. Divide the stakeholder cards between the group (some people may represent more than 1 stakeholder) Take it in turns, as the stakeholder you are representing to put forward how you are affected/interest by the activity of your business. Once you have all put your opinions forward now try to come to a solution by arguing for the interests of your stakeholder by where you are all happy with the outcome!!
