Chapter 2 in Managing the Olympics, 2013, pp 15-32 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Organizing committees are outsourcing entities, meaning that they need others (stakeholders) to do most of the work regarding the preparation for an Olympic Games while they focus on Games-time associated tasks as well as coordinating all stakeholders’ efforts. The Olympic Games is a complex undertaking requiring a high variety and amount of resources, as well as a variety of stakeholders to bid for, plan and host the Games. Stakeholders are all those individuals, groups and/or organizations that influence or are influenced by the actions of the focal organization (Freeman, 1984), here the bid/organizing committee.
