Course Description

Stakeholder Management and Communications course is to enable project personnel to effectively manage stakeholder interests, influence and expectations.

The key benefit of Stakeholder Engagement is that it requires project managers to see the bigger picture rather than getting stuck in a foxhole.

It also challenges them to acknowledge rather than deny the inherent conflicts of interest that exist between different groups and develop the high level competency (emotional, political and leadership intelligence) required to manage diversity.
