Come eseguirlo

  1. 1

    Invite participants from various parts of the organization to ensure comprehensive stakeholder mapping.

  2. 2

    Begin with a five-minute brainstorm to identify stakeholders, having participants write each one on a sticky note.

  3. 3

    Organize the sticky notes into a rough organizational chart on a wall, then create a cleaner version on a whiteboard.

  4. 4

    Discuss each stakeholder's disposition towards the initiative, their level of impact, and relationship strength with others.

  5. 5

    Use tokens or icons to visually represent stakeholder dynamics on the whiteboard.

Suggerimenti

  • Encourage open discussion to reveal insights about stakeholder influence and relationships.

  • Use different colors and symbols to avoid clutter and enhance understanding.

  • Ensure that all voices are heard to create a comprehensive map.

Variazioni

For smaller teams or less complex organizations, simplify the process by limiting the number of stakeholders analyzed. Alternatively, integrate digital tools for remote teams to collaboratively build the stakeholder map.
