The Role of Stakeholder Analysis in Project Success

Stakeholder analysis is the process of mapping out all stakeholders and evaluating their interests, expectations, power, and level of influence. Tools like power-interest grids, stakeholder maps, and influence matrices help project managers identify who needs close engagement versus minimal involvement.

Proper analysis helps tailor communication messages, determine appropriate mediums, and anticipate risks. When managed effectively, stakeholder engagement boosts support, reduces resistance, and improves overall project outcomes.
