Project Stakeholders (#6 in the series The Key Integrative Roles in Project Management)
By Dr.Russell Archibald
Project stakeholders include all persons or agencies that have any level of interest in the project or its outcome. This includes all of the persons carrying out the roles described above, plus all team members who contribute in some way to the project. In addition there are often a number of people outside the project itself who must be considered project stakeholders, especially in the case of governmentally sponsored projects. The figure below illustrates a useful way to identify actors (stakeholders) and factors that must be considered when planning for total success of any major project. Identifying and connecting the project with all key actors and factors affecting it is especially important with projects that directly affect the local and global environment.
Dr. Russell D. Archibald, PhD (Hon), MSc, Fellow PMI and APM/IPMA, PMP, is one of the six founding members of the Project Management Institute. Now semi-retired, he has many years of management experience in engineering and operations with a variety of major US corporations in Europe and South America as well as the US. He has made major contributions to the understanding of project management, is author of the best selling 2003 book “Managing High-Technology Programs and Projects” (published also in Russian, Chinese, and Italian), has trained more than a thousand program and project managers and project specialists around the world, and has consulted in project management to clients in 14 countries on 4 continents.
