Stakeholder Management

Do you know who is controlling you? How can you make them work for you?

When an organisation is about to launch new initiatives, one of the key questions is: who has a decisive impact on the outcome?

It may be crucial that a person or company knows:

  • Who may have an impact on a given issue
  • Which identified stakeholders are expected to use their knowledge and power – and whether they will advocate or obstruct

Knowing your stakeholders is the key to intelligent choices. A stakeholder map gives you a solid framework for choosing the influencing strategies that will take the project or the task forward.

Who
People & Performance guide, advice and train you in stakeholder management, and we do it using well-documented research, practicable and applicable models, and actual case studies.

What
Stakeholder management is an active analysis of stakeholders and their means of influence. Based on the actual context of a given situation, the purpose of stakeholder management is to facilitate the understanding, use and building of stakeholder relations. A People & Performance stakeholder management process equips you to handle and understand:

  • The main players and their power bases
  • Internal politics
  • Business dynamics
  • Influencing tactics and concrete stakeholder strategies
  • Communication
