Think not sh management, rather sh engagement (identify, analyse, plan communication, act, review what you've learning) 3. Make judgement on scope, listen and assess whom to please whom not 4.

Ur voice and the way u present is really enjoyable and easy to understand .

Brilliant video. Thank you. I love the way you explain everything in a very simple manner. And I loved the way you introduced your book as well.

Thank you so much for being my mentor on RU-vid. Very helpful video

Stakeholders fall into a few groups, in my view: Reactors: no real 'stake' but could affect those who can influence your community; Suppliers: you need what they do to complete your project to perform; they can be for or against, but must cooperate without sabotage. Their power to activate their position varies; Influencers: those with current influence in your project 'community' (its customers and customer supporters)

Thanks so much Mike, this is the best video i have watched here about stakeholders engagement.

Brilliant! I've learned so much from your videos! Thank you!!!!

Fabulous video, right up my avenue!

Thanks a lot Mike, I am addicted to your soothing voice

Don't get me wrong, but it is like i can see in his eyes the bitter poison of getting denied over and over again from stakeholders. A experience worth learning from. You remember me of a misfit, finding his way on a road full of "golden boys" and succeeding them and overcome yourself. Thank you for sharing that experience with us.

Thank you so much for these tips. I love the way you explain things. Very easy to understand and memorize. Very helpful indeed. Wish you all the best.

Mike, thank you so much for these tips! Do you have any tips/advice on setting expectations with stakeholders - how to set the expectation with them from the onset on what they can expect from you and how deep you will be involved as a PM in working with them?

Very informative, interesting presentation, great voice modulation

I enjoyed the humour in your video. Thank you

The intricacies of managing diverse stakeholders and shared a real-life scenario where effective communication resolved conflicts.

this was a god one too. Thanks Mike!

Allocate the time; respect your stakeholders by engaging and not managing, 5 steps to engage are identify, analyse, plan, act and review; you can never please all of them all of the time so choose who you want to please; don't argue with idiots - ask questions, repeat their last words and use silence; to change someone's mind give them a last chance though new information

The concept of stakeholders in project management refers to anyone who has an interest or stake in a particular project. The video gives a few examples of stakeholders, including the project team, the customer, and the sponsor. It also explains the importance of stakeholder management in order to ensure the success of a project. Tips of a good stakeholder. Here are five tips for managing stakeholders effectively: 1. Establish clear roles and responsibilities for all stakeholders. 2. Create a stakeholder communication plan and stick to it. 3. Seek stakeholder input and feedback early and often. 4. Engage stakeholders throughout the project life cycle. 5. Be transparent and open with stakeholders.

You are ice cold mike.

Do you recommend a certain stakeholder engagement form for a scrum project?

Working as a business analyst can we recommend a risk free solution/approach?

Your Stakeholder engagement didn’t perform as per plan & there are inordinate number of change request due to that leading to delays. What is the likely cause for this ? 1. Poorly prepared Change management Plan 2. Incomplete stakeholder register 3. Not reviewing the change log 4. Not updating the issue & change log

Can we consider contractor as a stakeholder ?

Irrevocably, asking the right question is the fundamental part of problem-solving skill and project development. By asking the right questions, you will quickly identify these problems and surface out solutions accordingly. One size does not fit all. You can't put all these stakeholders into account given time, money, and resources are scarce.

Give them one last reason. Pretend you forgot to mention that important reason, before you know it, they agree😅😂

What is tip 5? Changing someone’s opinion?

The team is a stakeholder

First of all, I'd like to say that I like your videos, as they are well articulated and understandable for even those people who have no prior PM experience whatsoever. However, when it comes to the process, it only makes you understand the crucial steps that need to be taken in stakeholder engagement, but it doesn't show the "HOW's". (e.g. How to identify "your" stakeholders or what sort of stakeholder analysis exist or recommended to use). And due to the lack of these essential details, for me the video is a bit too generic. (It's bascially the same video, as your previous "stakeholder management in 5" and "stakeholder engagement five-step process"). However, if you could add a bit more details (e.g. real or fictive examples) or if you were a bit more specific in these topics, then I believe people would have a much more thorough understanding of these processes. Again, I really like your videos, but I thought I'd leave more of a constructive feedback/note.
