Power/Interest Grid for Stakeholder Prioritization

This tool was developed by Mind Tools.

HERE’S HOW THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE THIS TOOL:

Stakeholder Management is the process by which you identify your key stakeholders and win their support. Stakeholder Analysis is the first stage of this, where you identify and start to understand your most important stakeholders.

The first stage of this is to brainstorm who your stakeholders are. The next step is to prioritize them by power and interest, and to plot this on a Power/Interest grid. The final stage is to get an understanding of what motivates your stakeholders and how you need to win them around.
