What we need to know about stakeholders:
What financial or emotional interest do they have in the project or its outcome?
Is it positive or negative ?
What motivates them most of all?
What information do they want from you?
What is the best way of communicating with them?
What is their current opinion of your work? Is it based on accurate information?
Who else might be influenced by their opinions and…
Do these people become stakeholders in their own right?
If they are not likely to be positive what would win them round?
If you can’t win them round, how will you manage their opposition?
