Power Skills • For every role • ~90 min
Stakeholder Management
The power × interest map, the real interest behind the 'no', and the no-surprises rhythm.
What you'll get: Most proposals are blocked not because the content is wrong, but because someone important heard about it too late or felt bypassed. This ~90-minute Power Skills course covers listing every stakeholder (gatekeepers and informal influencers included), placing them on the power × interest grid, separating positions from real interests, writing a stakeholder card in their language, holding a 'no surprises' rhythm, handling blockers by their actual cause, and navigating conflict between stakeholders.
Who is this course for?
- HR, L&D and project people who need buy-in across departments
- Managers rolling out change that touches multiple functions
- Anyone with good proposals that keep stalling for non-technical reasons

- List every stakeholder, including the groups most often missed
- Place stakeholders on the power × interest grid and pick the right strategy
