Activity 2: Stakeholder mapping
Stakeholder mapping.pdfStakeholder mapping is a way of visualising the relationships, influences, and interests of different groups or individuals. Through this process you can gain insights into the needs, pain points, goals, and motivations of multiple stakeholders.
Stakeholder mapping requires you to consider the relationship between multiple people by considering multiple perspectives at once.
Begin by identifying a number of stakeholders who would have a role in the saga of "The Three Little Pigs". For example:
The Three Little Pigs
The Big Bad Wolf
Real estate agents
Building contractors
Building materials suppliers
Safety inspectors
Group each stakeholder into common themes. You might like to move beyond the worksheet and list individual stakeholders on sticky notes.
For each group:
What motivates them?
What is their relationship with other stakeholders?
Label any connections or relationships between groups. For example there might be a positive relationship between the Big Bad Wolf and the construction industry as the Big Bad Wolf drives demand. There might be a negative relationship between the Three Little Pigs and the Safety Inspector due to poor construction work.
