Again the language of stakeholder responsibility is not intended to take our focus off of corporations. I think they are complimentary notions. We need to be thinking about the organization as a whole, but we need to not just focus on the company and what it owes back to stakeholders. We need to think about what stakeholders in turn owe to each other and back to the organization as well as to society.
