Without building an effective stakeholder management strategy, HR will not:

  • Be aware of stakeholders’ true perceptions, needs, and priorities.
  • Have the communication needed to build a talent strategy that impacts organizational outcomes.
  • Act as a strategic business partner.

By creating and keeping up a strong stakeholder management strategy, HR will:

  • Build trusting relationships within HR which eases buy-in for future projects.

  • Function as a strategic partner.
