This PPT slide, part of the 26-slide Stakeholder Analysis and Engagement Framework Primer PowerPoint presentation, presents an overview of the Stakeholder Identification phase, which is critical for recognizing all individuals, groups, and organizations impacted by a given initiative. The focus is on a systematic approach to identifying stakeholders to ensure no important parties are missed, which could jeopardize the success of the engagement.
The slide is structured into several sections, starting with an overview that emphasizes the importance of early and thorough identification. It highlights that this phase involves outlining the goals and desired outcomes of the initiative, as well as identifying affected departments and processes. Both internal and external impacts are considered, which is essential for a comprehensive understanding of stakeholder dynamics.
Key activities are listed, including defining the scope of the initiative, listing potential stakeholders, and utilizing mapping tools. This suggests a methodical approach where organizational charts and business process maps are employed to pinpoint key individuals and decision-makers. The slide also mentions conducting brainstorming sessions to gather diverse perspectives, indicating a collaborative effort in stakeholder identification.
Consultation of documentation and records is another activity noted, which involves reviewing past project records and stakeholder registers. This can provide valuable insights and ensure that no relevant stakeholders are overlooked. Engaging with key informants, such as department heads and subject matter experts, is also emphasized, which can uncover less obvious stakeholders.
Finally, the timeframe for this phase is indicated as typically ranging from 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the initiative's scope and the organization’s size. This timeframe gives potential customers a realistic expectation of the commitment required for effective stakeholder identification.
