Stakeholder EngagementDefine the Awareness to Adoption Path for the Stakeholders High Adoption/Embracement Level of Commitment Commitment Understanding Awareness Low Level of Involvement/Engagement High Low Stakeholders… • are informed • can understand the context, why the change is occurring & the overall benefits • know where to get more information Stakeholders… • understand the personal impact; their role in the change is more clear • are able to explain the change to others • start to create a bias for action Stakeholders… • demonstrate a willingness to change; begin to take ownership for the change • have a clear understanding of what must change & what they need to do to prepare Stakeholders… • are working & behaving in new ways • have internalized the change and made it part of the fabric of how they do what they do • have taken ownership Benefits begin to be realized What we’re trying to achieve • broad communications, not customized per stakeholder group • one way communication (with feedback vehicle for more information) • e.g., print, e-mail, voicemail intranet/internet • start to leverage relationships • increased level of targeted messaging for specific stakeholders • e.g., Road Shows, Town Halls demos, Q&A, targeted scenarios by stakeholder group • more opportunity for dialogue • consulting, open dialogue, feedback • focus on hands-on, face to-face communications or dialogue • ability to touch & test • e.g., walk-through customized scenarios, involvement in testing, process changes, readiness • ownership no longer with the project • consulting, co-creating • leverage testimonials & change champions to grow momentum • establish a new norm (e.g. use new language, model new culture, etc.) • make it clear that old ways are no longer acceptable • provide support; measure results Possible Approaches
