Stakeholder Partnerships
This technique explains how CR&S practitioners can manage and influence stakeholder relationships after key stakeholders have been identified. It focuses on selecting appropriate engagement levels, using ethical influence, building trust, and developing effective partnerships.
Technique Overview
Stakeholder Partnerships Definition
Managing and influencing stakeholder relationships means using stakeholder mapping to decide how best to work differently with people and groups. It helps build trust, gain support, and move CR&S work forward. Choosing the right level of engagement can also turn important relationships into partnerships, where the organisation and its stakeholders work together towards shared CR&S goals.
