Managing Project Stakeholders
Plan and Manage Effective Stakeholder Engagement
Course Overview
This Managing Project Stakeholders training course will help you to cultivate your skills and knowledge of stakeholders. It includes the processes required to identify the people, groups or organisations that could impact or be impacted by a project, before moving on to analyze stakeholder expectations and develop appropriate management strategies for engaging stakeholders.
Do you properly involve stakeholders on your projects? Have you ever had a key stakeholder complain they don’t know what is going on? Have you delivered products into the business only to find users don’t like the new system or worse don’t even use it?
