Difference between Stakeholder and Shareholder

To my understanding, I sees the stakeholders as those members of the state officials who are responsible for the day to day activities of the state. either directly or Indirectly. while the shareholders are those members of a particular company who are responsible for the day to day affairs of the business company to promote their business.

In business terms, many people still misunderstand the words Stakeholder and Shareholder. At first glance it looks the same but if we examine there will be many differences, both regarding functions and authority, differences in the influence on regulations and company decisions.

These reasons often mean that the stakeholder has a greater need for the company to succeed over a longer term.

From my findings, I have discovered that a shareholder owns part of a public company through shares of stock, while a stakeholder has an interest in the
performance of a company for reasons other than stock performance. That is just my little contributions. Thanks for sharing.

From what I understand with stakeholder, they are persons or groups that have a huge concern on the business or industry. Shareholders are owners of stocks of a corporation which means they are part owner of the company.

To some instances I will consider the stakeholders as those who are involved in the formal organisation of government institution while the shareholders deals with board governors of a business organisation.
The difference between stakeholders and shareholders is that, the former deals with public organisation or the state entire while the later deals with private organisations concerning finance.
