Programme Overview

Stakeholder management is a critical leadership skill in today’s complex business environment. Leaders are increasingly required to influence stakeholders without authority, align diverse interests, and drive collective outcomes.

In today’s dynamic business landscape, effective leadership entails navigating complex networks of stakeholders. It requires leaders to develop the capacity to align organizational, personal, and team member interests toward a common purpose to achieve success. However, this task is easier said than done.

Research conducted by Robert Anderson and William Adams for their book, Scaling Leadership, identified that the number one differentiator of effective leaders is strong people skills. Six out of ten of their biggest strengths relate to people skills, such as listening, meaningful connection, and empowering team members through influence rather than authority.

Through this stakeholder management course, participants will gain awareness, practice skills, and learn strategies needed to inspire, engage, and influence diverse stakeholders, even when faced with contradicting motivations. They will learn how to pursue shared objectives as they lead their organizations toward overarching goals.
