Abstract: The objective of this paper is to assess the role of stakeholders and sources that are present in organisations, as well as their marketplace, business networks and society at large, in situations where organisations implement sustainable business practices. A questionnaire was developed, based upon qualitative research conducted and amongst executives of Norwegian organisations who have implemented business sustainability practices. A total of 110 useable responses was collected. The results indicate that the majority of organisations have implemented comprehensive sustainable business practices to a large extent. The study also indicates consistency, as well as differences across stakeholders, namely that economic, social and environmental aspects are taken into consideration in organisational efforts at sustainable business practices. The work furthermore provides empirical substantiation of a two-dimensional framework of sources in business networks and a five-dimensional framework of stakeholders in the marketplace and society.
