“…The study expands the application of the salient stakeholder model (Mitchell et al, 1997) within the festival tourism sector and compliments the Braun and Starmanns' (2009) study that applied the salient stakeholder theory in the manufacturing sector, thereby showing the relevance of the model in the tourism service sector. This information has provided insights into salient stakeholders' expectations with regard to the environmental performance of a paragliding event.…”

“…In recent years, insights from the stakeholder theory (Freeman, 1984) have been applied to analyse and evaluate events and festivals (Adongo and Kim, 2018; Braun and Starmanns, 2009; Nyanjom et al , 2018). In this study, the stakeholder salience model (Mitchell et al , 1997) derived from the stakeholder theory (Freeman, 1984) was applied to explore participants' environmental attitudes and performance rating, in context.…”

“…Though the stakeholder theory was applied in the festival tourism context, there has been a scant application of the Mitchell et al (1997) model to understand the perceptions of heterogeneous participants about environment and perception of tourism performance, within context. Subsequently, Braun and Starmanns (2009) explored stakeholders' salience by combining four environmental stakeholders' attributes (i.e. power, legitimacy and willingness to co-operate) to determine “who and what counts”.…”

PurposeParagliding festivals have become significant events in the global tourism space, attracting tourists to local and international destinations. The purpose of this study was to assess environmental attitudes and rate the performance of the paragliding festival of the Kwahu traditional area in Ghana, from the perspectives of four stakeholder groups.Design/methodology/approachThis study was grounded on the salient stakeholder theory. A quantitative cross-sectional study, with a convenience sampling approach, collected 372 useable questionnaires from four major stakeholders/participants (i.e. Kwahu residents, Kwahu returnees, non-Kwahu Ghanaian tourists and foreigners). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyse the data.FindingsThe findings of the Games-Howell post-hoc test show no significant differences among the four stakeholder groups in the festival performance assessment. However, there is a significant statistical difference between the Kwahu residents and foreign tourists regarding environmental attitudes towards the paragliding festival.Practical implicationsVisitors' perceptions and experiences of the environmental performance could inform the planning and execution of festive events that have a direct impact on the natural environment. Policymakers at the community levels must enact environmental protocols that uphold the value propositions of the stakeholders and that of the community at large.Originality/valueThe study expands the application of the salience stakeholder model within festival tourism by highlighting under-represented stakeholder voices in a single study on paragliding festivals in a developing country context.

“…Rupp stated that "The management of a firm takes decisions or actions that have a positive or negative effect on the environment; however, these decisions or actions are motivated, driven, supported, and constructed by many competing stakeholder claims [41]. Firms' environmentally destructive operations often mobilize stakeholders to protest against these firms; usually, companies somehow react to these stakeholder protests [42].…”

The purpose of this study is to examine the moderating role of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in project financing decisions. CSR has gained growing prominence in today's business era. This study investigates four environmental strategies and the credit risk assessment, stakeholder assessment and corporate social responsibility assessment impact on project financing decision. It explores three main issues related to environmental responsibility (planet), economic responsibility (profit) and social responsibility (people). The study is explanatory and quantitative, and both domestic and foreign banks participated in the data collection process. The sample size for the study is 491 participants. Data was collected through a simple random sampling technique and was analyzed by applying simple linear regression, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling analysis (SEM) through the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The study shows that the Pakistani banking sector is implementing environmental management policies. Foreign banks are more motivated towards corporate social responsibility practices. Cultural differences can influence a manager's attitude towards implementation of environmental risk-management policies. The result shows that corporate social responsibility has a moderating role in project financing decisions and environmental risk management, stakeholder and credit risk assessment. All hypotheses has significant values.
