3. Introduction
• Relatively new concept :
– “70% of people not consulted” (Hutton 1995)
• Successful projects more than ‘time, cost & quality’
– Quantitative and Qualitative success criteria
4. Definition(s)
• “those groups who without whose support the organisation would
cease to exist” (Freeman 1984)
• “the people who have a real interest in the outcomes of the project”
(Lockwood 1996)
• “individuals or groups who can effect, or are affected by the
(project) you are (managing)” (Ryan 1996)
• “a person or group of people who have a vested interest in the
success of an organisation [project] and the environment within
which the organisation [project] exists” (BS6079 1996)

a satisfactory degree
Project leader
Has the result been achieved with
respect to the aspects of Time,
Money, Quality, Information &
Organisation
Project employee Is their contribution appreciated?
Financier Is it profitable?
End User Is it usable?
Person with problem Are we any closer to finding a solution

11. Exercise 1
• Working in a small group
• Consider a project to bring a new
mobile phone to market
• Identify a range of stakeholders and
stakeholder groups
• What resources do they bring to the
project?
13. Stakeholder Analysis
• What is the person or group’s stake in the project?
– Are they needed to resource it?
– Are they directly affected by it?
– Are they indirectly affected by it?
– Are they unaffected, but still have the power to affect it
should they choose?
14. Don’t take for granted
Assure that project
meets their objectives
Difficult to manage
Basing their opposition on
knowledge
Vulnerable;
could easily be lost
Protect and
reinforce support
Key target area
Fill gaps in knowledge
with positive messages
