Stakeholders and Corporation
Ans. 1) In the case study "Insuring Uber's App-on Gap," Uber's relevant market stakeholders are
the customer of Uber and Uber's driver. And nonmarket stakeholders are the California Appbased Drivers Association the cab ride companies, taxi companies share units, the American
Insurance Association, California legislator Susan Bollina, Government, and the general people.
Ans. 2) The stakeholders' interests that the drivers of the Uber primarily support the new law the
expansion of the insurance coverage because of the personal advantages of earning pay and cost
of private insurance, and it also decreases the driver's risk. A good example in the book that the
drivers who worked with Uber are flexible to work when and as much as the drivers desire. (24)
The customers of Uber ride, California base Drivers, and American Insurance
Association, the larger companies, are much more reliable in terms of insurance because the
company provides a good protection plan for the customers and less risk by the company of
insurance nonpayment. Because of Uber's increased liability, they have even more and more
accessible competition from traditional taxi companies. And already pay for commercial liability
insurance by the other Cab firms.
Stakeholders who are against the App-on Gap, Uber's competition, the companies of ridehailing services have to offer better services to attract people, like better insurance, which could
cost more to closing the App-on Gap.
Ans. 3) The sources of power relevant stakeholders have Making insurance a pre-requisite is
something that can be done at the State, City, and Governmental levels, which can enforce the
law with political power.
The drivers of Uber themselves also have some power to band up to get better rights or
leave. The drivers also know how the Uber App works, allowing them to get around the gap.
The customers of Uber can file suits against Uber. They also have the legal power to
combine several cases in a category of action case that can affect more than a particular case.
And through the choice of the service of the transportation, the customers' power of economic.
Ride-sharing companies are growing economic power rapidly. The Rideshare firms'
capabilities are in the legal support and ample money resources. They also control undefined
laws. So how things will be done in the future, this unclear give them the power to note. The
states can't do anything about it because this is a new persistence.
Association of high technology can manipulate political force to shut the Gap against the
bill, and they can create the argument team which could make restrictive the obedience expenses.
The woman Susan Bollina can make the law with a platform of influence because she is
officially elected.
Ans. 4) The stakeholder map for the Uber App-on Gap problems are:
Taxi drivers possibly team up with ride-hailing firms and network provider companies
against extending the insurance on the App-on the Gap conditions.
The insurance on the Aap-on the Gap conditions possibly team up with those who
support extending, is California app based association, children, their mother and law makers.
The study of stakeholder map is:
In the study of stakeholder map, on the App-on Gap situations, most of the organizations
are in favor of expanding insurance.
Ride hailing companies can use the control they have to get more rightfulness properly.
There are more proponents of this change than the opponent. The proponents have more
prominence and have more radical opinions. Susan Bonilla, who wants to expand the insurance
coverage, is the one people like more to support her.
Ans. 5) Salience is caused by people having more control and less time over a situation. The
insurance companies approved the legislator's decision. The public of family of mother and kids
who the Uber driver hit is worried that there could be collisions/injuries in the future. And the
next stakeholder was who opposed the bill was Uber, and the other cab firms were concerned
about accomplishing business because of raising the costs.
At the end, public was the most salient about this situation because of their security and
safety, which are directly affected by. Nowadays, apps like Uber and other Taxi companies are
now using technology to advance their companies. Yet, The companies, however, do not view
the well-being of their customers as a priority. The general public should act actively to impact
the decision of legislators and courts that would ensure their protection of life and security in the
future.
Ans. 6) The map analysis of the stakeholders reveals their association with the management
The stakeholder map analysis for the case is:
Susan Bonilla says that in the App-on Gap, commercial liability insurance should be
introduced by the Uber ride company and ride-hailing firms when the cab driver shifts the app to
when the client reached out of the auto. If Susan Bollina bill is accepted, it will be impossible to
give the best quality service to the general public for doing business with the internet base and
high tech company because of the cost that Uber company should claim.
The expense of doing business could impact the Taxi business and lead to poor service to
the people if the firms need to accept this bill. To reduce the risk of the accident in the future,
Uber should have introduced to the Drivers some strict restrictions.
It is employing the people through its services, it could also be argued that.
