ABSTRACT
Stakeholders management in public hospitals - from stakeholders management to stakeholders relations Public sector organisations have a sufficient influence to win political legitimization and resources to finance their operations by satisfying their stakeholders. Organizations that adopt stakeholder management principles probably better satisfy their constituent needs and balance their interests, which results in higher capacity of goal achievement. The question of what initiatives were undertaken by public sector organisations to manage different stakeholders, and what were their motivations is still unanswered. The aim of this paper is to understand how stakeholder groups are being recognized in the public hospitals’ decision-making in context of resources.
