Management. Lift your career and your organisation.

This stakeholder management course delivers the principles of effective stakeholder management in everyday working situations. Stakeholders are all those individuals and team members involved in helping the organisation to achieve its objectives.

This stakeholder management course deals with how to effectively manage a wide variety of stakeholders in a “Business As Usual” context, rather than specifically on a project basis. We will examine stakeholders from a variety of perspectives, including power and interest dimensions, and in so doing, develop techniques for dealing with adversaries and for building advocates.

Objectives

Course objectives include:

• effectively communicating with all stakeholder groups
• engaging with stakeholders in a way that produces stronger results from a time, cost and quality perspective
• leading a diverse group of stakeholders to achieve required outcomes, whilst satisfying each stakeholder’s agenda
• building relationships that maximise value and minimise waste for each stakeholder group
• negotiating in difficult situations to achieve winning outcomes for yourself and each stakeholder group
• managing change so that it is successfully embraced at all levels
• ensuring there is goal alignment across each stakeholder group for moving ahead in the same direction.
