In complex business environments, the success of a project rarely depends on technical execution alone; it hinges on the support of the people involved. The primary challenge in Stakeholder Management is navigating the "web of influence"—understanding that different parties have competing priorities, varying levels of power, and subjective definitions of success. Without proactive management, projects often face "hidden blockers," sudden shifts in support, or communication breakdowns. 

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Identify stakeholders,
• Analyze their influence and expectations,
• Select appropriate communication strategies,
• Handle conflicts of interest,
• Build long-term relationships.
