Dopo aver conseguito il bachelor in matematica e filosofia presso la Washington University di St. Louis ed il Ph.D in filosofia presso la Duke University, ha insegnato presso l'Università del Minnesota, quindi presso la Wharton School dell'Università della Pennsylvania. Attualmente ricopre i seguenti incarichi: Elis and Signe Olsson Professor of Business Administration presso la Darden School of Business, Direttore del Business Roundtable Institute for Corporate Ethics, e guida l'Olsson Center for Applied Ethics della Darden School of Business.

Il 28 agosto 2008 è stato reso noto l'avvio di una sua collaborazione biennale con la Business School della George Washington University di Washington DC, come lecturer in etica, global business e leadership.

È noto soprattutto per la formulazione della teoria degli stakeholder , teoria per la quale l'attività di un'organizzazione aziendale deve garantire un minimum prestazionale a tutti i portatori di interesse , i quali, in mancanza di detta prestazione minima, abbandonano l'azienda, rendendo di fatto impossibile la continuazione dell'attività. Un'anticipazione di tali concetti appare in una pubblicazione edita nel 1968 dall'economista italiano Giancarlo Pallavicini, ideatore del "Metodo della scomposizione dei parametri" per il calcolo dei risultati non direttamente economici dell'attività d'impresa, riguardanti istanze etiche, morali, sociali, culturali ed ambientali.

“The stakeholder concept was originally defined as "those groups without whose support the organization would cease to exist." The list of stakeholders originally included shareowners, employees, customers, suppliers, lenders and society. Stemming from the work of Igor Ansoff and Robert Stewart (in the planning department at Lockheed) and, later Marion Doscher and Stewart at SRI, the original approach served an important information function in the SRI corporate planning.”

“We are in need of new concepts… which reorient our way of looking at the world to encompass present and future changes. I believe [in] the predominant framework for modern corporation… the corporation is viewed as a resource-conversion entity, taking raw material and converting tme into products, with dollars measuring the transaction. Returns are provided to owners in the form of dividends or capital appreciation in the marketplace.”

“Somewhere in the past. organizations were quite simple, and 'doing business' consisted of buying raw material from suppliers, converting into products, and selling it to customers… For the most part owner-entrepreneurs founded such simple business and worked along with members of their families. The family-dominated business still accounts for a large portion of the business start today.”

“A number of factors coalesced to make larger and larger firms more economical. The development of new production processes, such as assembly line, means that jobs could be specialized and more work could be accomplished. New technologies and sources of power became readily available. Demographic factors began to favor concentration of production in urban areas. These and other social and political forces require larger amounts of capital, well beyond the scope of most individual owner-manager-employee.”

“Lack of specificity around stakeholder identity remains a serious obstacle to the further development of stakeholder theory and its adoption in actual practice by business managers. Nowhere is this shortcoming more evident than in stakeholder theory's treatment of the constituency known as 'community.”

Freeman (2001) "Enhancing Stakeholder Practice: A Particularized Exploration of Community," 2001, cited in: Enhancing Stakeholder Practice, Ten Years Later: Professor Ed Freeman on Community, Technology and Globalization http://www.justmeans.com/Enhancing-Stakeholder-Practice-Ten-Years-Later-Professor-Ed-Freeman-on-Community-Technology-Globalization/48445.html, in: Corporate social responsibility, April 15, 2011

“While there have been many criticisms of the research in corporate social responsibility, perhaps the most troubling issue is the very nature of 'corporate social responsibility' as if the concept were needed to augment the study of business policy. Corporate social responsibility was often looked at as an “add on” to “business as usual” and the phrase often heard from executives is “corporate social responsibility is fine, if you can afford it.
We need to understand the complex interconnections between economic and social forces. Isolating "social issues" as separate from the economic impact which they have, and conversely isolating economic issues as if they had no social effect, misses the mark both managerially and intellectually. Actions aimed at one side will not address the concerns of the other. Processes, techniques and theories that do not consider all of these forces will fail to describe and predict the business world as it really is.”
