A stakeholder power map helps to visualize the importance of various stakeholders and your relationship with them so you can prioritize your time according to the most powerful and most “needed” stakeholders.
- Leverage this tool to determine the importance of each stakeholder as a factor of power/influence, impact, and support.
- Focus on key players: relevant stakeholders who have high power/influence, should have high involvement, and are highly impacted.
- Engage the stakeholders that are impacted most and have the power to impede IT strategy success.
