Who Are the Stakeholders in a Business? Running a business is like hosting a huge family reunion. 🍽️ Every family member is a stakeholder, each with their own interest in how things turn out. Here’s how they all fit into the picture: 1. Internal Stakeholders (The Core Family Members): These are the people directly involved in running the reunion—employees and management. They’re like your siblings and parents, doing all the heavy lifting. They’re organizing the food, setting up tables, and making sure everyone is having a good time. Without them, the whole event would fall apart! 2. Connected Stakeholders (The Close Relatives): These folks are closely connected to the family reunion, even if they’re not organizing it: #Shareholders are like those aunts and uncles who chipped in financially. They expect to see a return on their investment—whether it’s in the form of a successful event or some leftovers to take home! #Customers are the favorite cousins who come for the food (your products or services). If they’re not happy, they might not show up next time! #Suppliers are like the caterers and decorators, providing all the goodies. They expect to be paid for their hard work, or they won’t help with your next event. #Financiers are like the rich uncle who lent you some money to cover party costs. He’ll be watching closely to make sure you pay him back—plus a little extra for his troubles! 3. External Stakeholders (The Nosy Neighbors and Beyond): These are the folks outside of your family but still affected by the reunion: #Community is like your neighbors who notice the party. They want you to keep the noise down and not block their driveways. If you’re considerate, they’ll be happy to have you as neighbors. #Government is like the neighborhood association making sure your party follows all the rules—no loud music, no illegal fireworks, and don’t forget the permits! #PressureGroups are like those opinionated neighbors who care about the environment and safety. They’ll keep you in check if you start setting off fireworks or leaving a mess behind. So, in your business “family reunion,” everyone—from the hard-working siblings to the nosy neighbors—has a stake in how things go. Keep them all happy, and your event (or business) will be a success! #BusinessTips #Stakeholders #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #BusinessStrategy #CompanyCulture #BusinessGrowth #EmployeeEngagement #CustomerExperience #CorporateResponsibility #Networking #BusinessManagement #BusinessDevelopment #CommunityBuilding #BusinessSuccess

So, I accidentally started a community in a city I just moved to… I moved to London 2.5 months ago but I’ve already decided to tackle London's winter blues, one weeknight meetup/event at a time. After posting one TikTok about the importance of weeknight activities in staying happy during the dark winter months, I leaned into a community building idea and started Londoners Against SAD. Last week I held the first-ever Londoners Against SAD meetup, and let me tell you, it was a masterclass in "fake it till you make it" community building. Real talk? I knew ZERO about organizing events before this. Like, absolute zilch. But here we are, proving that sometimes you just need to throw yourself into the deep end and hope you don't drown (spoiler: you won't). Some lessons from my accidental community experiment: 1️⃣ Embrace the Chaos: I had zero event planning skills, but guess what? Turns out enthusiasm and sincerity is what matters. People care more about people than plans, so focus on being welcoming and getting people talking. 2️⃣ When Life Gives You Lemons (aka Crowded Christmas Markets): Our original plan? Total disaster. The Christmas market was more packed than the Central Line during rush hour. But instead of throwing in the towel, we pivoted and walked to a different one. Result? A great night with time for real connection making that was even better than the original plan. 3️⃣ Pro Tip: Free = Flaky: Learned the that "free" translates to "maybe I'll show up, maybe I won't" in event planning language. Basically, expect half your RSVPs to bail. It's not you, it's just the unwritten reality of casual event planning. This is just the beginning of my Londoners Against SAD adventure. If you've survived building a community or have pro tips on community building for young people without breaking the bank, slide into my DMs or drop a comment. Seriously, I'm all ears.
