Introduction to Management (Chapter 5)
The Classical View
Management’s only social responsibility is to maximize profits (create a financial return) by operating the business in the best interests of the stockholders (owners of the corporation).
![Page 12: Introduction to Management LECTURE 10: Introduction to Management MGT 101 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051405/5a4d1b647f8b9ab0599af658/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Introduction to Management (Chapter 5)
The Classical View
Expending the firm’s resources on doing “social good” unjustifiably increases costs that lower profits to the owners and raises prices to consumers.

Introduction to Management (Chapter 5)
The Socioeconomic View
Management’s social responsibility goes beyond making profits to include protecting and improving society’s welfare.
Corporations are not independent entities responsible only to stockholders.

Introduction to Management (Chapter 5)
