Whether it is pitching a proposal, implementing new operating procedures or delivering a project, stakeholder engagement will always be involved. One way or another they will be affected by your project. It is essential to understand their perspectives and get them to root for you.
As you make your stakeholder engagement plan, it becomes evident that time and resources are limiting factors. Building trust and understanding cannot be done callously. Stakeholder engagement must be done discreetly with respect and authenticity.
Imagine this scenario
You have a stakeholder whom everyone in the company hates talking to, but there is one person who seems to be able to engage him where no one else could.
This one person seems to possess the ability to talk to almost anyone and get them on his side. This is not an idealist scenario. It is real and can be learned.

The Rewards of Engaging Stakeholders
Project managers know that the success of any project is closely linked with how well they engage stakeholders. Being able to establish an insightful relationship with stakeholders allows us to discover their perspectives, needs, and expectations. Knowing their intrinsic motivation helps us project stakeholders’ responses and proactively manage expectations. Doing this from the start will greatly reduce any uncertainty.
Remember that stakeholders can and do play critical roles in all projects. They are often business leaders with valuable experience and technical knowledge. Having a good stakeholder engagement plan from the beginning will help you develop a clear vision, and guide strategic planning and decision-making as the project progresses. Developing collaborative relationships with them early on will give you a competitive advantage.
There is a wide range of engagement strategies like stakeholder mapping, stakeholder analysis, communications plans, and stakeholder relationship management programs. These are all engagement activities and will only bring you into contact with stakeholders. To build trust you will need the skills to navigate the interaction and discover the intrinsic motivation behind each stakeholder or stakeholder group.
To successfully engage stakeholders, you have to shift your perspective and focus more on the process and relationship. A stakeholder engagement plan should include not only key stakeholders but all stakeholders. Consider a wide range of strategies for each stakeholder or stakeholder group.
The initiative to engage stakeholders should be considered during the planning process and incorporated into the project management plan. This will change the management approach to view interactions with project stakeholders as strengthening collaborative relationships. Without this shift in mindset, there is a danger of undermining your efforts and causing lasting damage.
In the Engaging Stakeholders for Success program, you will learn skills and tools backed by psychology and behavioural science. The strategies included will give you the confidence and practical skills to engage stakeholders effectively and consistently.
