Stakeholder Map + Engagement Plan

Map the stakeholders for a real project — interest × influence — and design an engagement plan for each.

Spreadsheet + drawing tool (Whimsical, Excalidraw)

About this project

Stakeholder management is the senior BA skill. This project teaches the methodology: identify all stakeholders, assess interest + influence, design an engagement strategy (informed, consulted, partnered, championed), and produce a comms cadence. Pick a real project (yours, hypothetical) and produce the artefacts.

Why build this in 2026?

Most BAs underdo stakeholder work and pay for it in the middle of projects. A strong upfront artefact prevents later pain.
