Abstract
This paper applies an emerging area of thought regarding stakeholder theory to relationships between firms and local volunteer organizations. This area of thought, grounding stakeholder theory in feminist theory, leads to a view of managers as caring persons, wishing to help the myriad local organizations in all ways. The paper concentrates on allowing employees to do volunteer work with organizations they care for, using release time if the need arises.
