The Problem • Stakeholders lie at the heart of everything we do in systems engineering. • Freeman: a stakeholder is someone who "can affect or is affected by the achievement of the organization's objectives" (1984, p. 46). • We lack a software tool to help us classify and manage stakeholders 2
Stakeholder Classification Dormant (Power, no legitimacy, and no urgency) Discretionary (Legitimacy, no power, and no urgency) Demanding (Urgency, no power, and no legitimacy) Dominant (Power and legitimacy, no urgency) Dangerous (Power and urgency, no legitimacy) Dependent (Legitimacy and urgency, no power) Definitive (Power, legitimacy, and urgency) Non-stakeholder (No power, no legitimacy, no urgency) Power 1 Dormant Stakeholder Latent Legitimacy 4 Dominant Stakeholder 7 Definitive Stakeholder 5 Dangerous Stakeholder 2 Discretionary Stakeholder Expectant 6 Dependent Stakeholder 3 Demanding Stakeholder Definitive 8 Non-stakeholder Undefined Urgency Stakeholder Typology, adapted from (Mitchell, et al., 1997) 3
Stakeholder Attitude adapted from (Savage, et al., 1991) 4
The Solution • A software tool which can help us to capture stakeholder attitude, classification, and influence • Display results in a graphical (network-based) format, as well as a tabular format Commander Dept Staff HQ Support SPAWAR Key Circle size = Classification Circle color = Attitude Line direction = Direction of Influence Line width = Strength of influence Admin Users
