Stakeholder analysis is the systematic identification, evaluation, and prioritisation of everyone who can influence, or has an interest in, a project, program or initiative. Stakeholder mapping is a stakeholder analysis technique where interested parties (stakeholders) are identified and assessed to see who can have the greatest impact on the success of an initiative. This module introduces the topic of stakeholder mapping and analysis and the value in systematically identifying key players for impact.
