Using a stakeholder engagement software you can identify and document the “who, what, when, how and why” of stakeholders that have a stake in a change or who will be impacted by your project initiative.

Three Options: Stakeholder Management Template & Tools

We decided to build our stakeholder engagement and management tools using Excel to increase their flexibility and usability. This is because most people are already familiar with Excel, and prefer to maintain local copies of their work.

“We created three stakeholder management tools to match everyone’s budgeting needs.”

• The 1st option is the Stakeholder Mapping Template. It does not include the analytics, automation or dashboard capabilities that the tool has. But it is the cheapest option.
• The 2nd option is the Stakeholder Mapping, Engagement & Management Tool, which includes the template for your stakeholder mapping and assessment, as well as a real-time analytics dashboard for insights and monitoring, and detailed samples. It is automated and includes more features.
• The 3rd option is the Stakeholder Mapping, Engagement & Management Tool PLUS 90. With this option, you get a 90-Day Support, Features & Enhancement Service (90 days from date of purchase you can get support if you run into issues when using the tool. In addition, you can request up to three enhancements or features to be added to your tool (For example, additional pivot tables, charts, reports, columns, etc.).

If you are low on budget, then you can go with just the Stakeholder Analytics Template.
However, if you believe in value over cost, then obtain the 2nd or 3rd option.
