Abstract

Medium-sized companies are under great pressure to change and face the challenge of remaining competitive in volatile organizational environments. Challenges such as digitalization, sustainability and business model adaptations require new and innovative approaches. These challenges require companies to have a deep understanding of how their stakeholders’ expectations are changing and how to effectively involve them. -- The aim of this article is to show how an innovation-focused stakeholder navigator can be used to provide a systematic and systemic view of the challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The navigator serves as an orientation aid that provides an overview of the necessary organizational resources and capabilities, the specific stakeholder expectations and their goals, the geographical scope of the stakeholders, the cooperation potential, and the derived participation strategies. / Mittelständische Unternehmen stehen unter großem Veränderungsdruck und der He­rausforderung, in sich ändernden Organisationsumfeldern wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. Themenfelder wie Digitalisierung, Nachhaltigkeit und Geschäftsmodellanpassungen erfordern neue und innovative Herangehensweisen. Diese Herausforderungen verlangen von Unternehmen ein tiefes Verständnis darüber, wie sich die Erwartungen ihrer Stakeholder verändern und wie sie diese effektiv einbinden können. -- Ziel des Artikels ist es aufzuzeigen, wie mithilfe eines innovations-gerichteten Stakeholder-Navigators eine systemische und systematische Sicht auf die Herausforderungen mittelständischer Unternehmen geworfen werden kann. Der Navigator dient als Orientierungshilfe, der einen Überblick gibt zu den notwendigen organisationalen Ressourcen und Fähigkeiten, den spezifischen Stakeholder-Erwartungen und deren Ziele, der geografischen Ausdehnung, dem Kooperationspotenzial, sowie den abgeleiteten Partizipationsstrategien.
