Identify all stakeholders under the umbrella of corporate governance and explain how each stakeholder is impacted by this concept in particular. Please Support your arguments with sources and industry examples.

Corporate goverance provides us with the processing framework of how a particular company is directed and controlled. “A growing stream of studies are examining corporate governance in relationship to external environmental processes, including changes in regulations, shifting stakeholder pressures, and emerging social policies” (Tihanyi, Graffin, & George, 2015, p.4). Please focus on two specific examples where the external environment impacted corporate governance of the company of your choice
