Stakeholder Management (SM)

Stakeholder management creates positive relationships with stakeholders through the appropriate management of their expectations and agreed objectives. Stakeholder management is a process and control that must be planned and guided by underlying principles.
The goal of the course is to give learners the tools to initiate a project plan, manage both internal and external stakeholders and relationships, organize their team, develop a project charter, and build a business case for a project.
Stakeholder Management will equip learners with the knowledge and capacity to correctly identify and analyse stakeholders, evaluate and prioritise vested interests, and manage relevant relationships in organisation’s business environment. Given the increasing awareness and value of different publics, the knowledge that will be acquired through this course will lend itself to the maximisation of results and minimisation of problems in creating a sustainable organisational endeavour.
