Description
Most developers don't manage stakeholders actively, because they don't feel like they have the time, know what to do or have the necessary tools to assist them.
I get it - if you're overworked, don't know what to do and have nothing (or no one) to support you, it becomes a hassle. It's frustrating: others are difficult to work with, don't understand what you're saying and disregard your contribution as if coding is just the simplest thing.
But it doesn't have to be like that.
What if you could swap all your frustrations with less stress, more respect and authority and boost your career at the same time?
Stakeholder management isn't something you do randomly. For it to be effective you must define a clear method that fits your personality, with your own rules, which again and again help you identify your stakeholders, easily initiate the necessary relations, build trust and communicate effectively.
Once you learn these methods and techniques you can use them again and again - and stay confident that you're doing it right.
Here's what you'll learn
STRUCTURE
Break down stakeholder management into relevant bite-sized steps and find a rhythm. Irregular communication efforts is a waste of your time and energy. For stakeholder management to result in recognition, saved time and career growth you'll need to incorporate it into your daily routines.
Learn to focus your efforts, set relevant goals and work out how to engage your stakeholders to reach them.
STRATEGIC COMMUNICATION
In stakeholder management the (shared) goal sanctifies the means. There are many different ways to communicate and approach a stakeholder. Which way you choose and how you adapt your communication makes all the difference.
Get to know the different communication methods, choose which will work for you and how to adjust them to match your stakeholder.
THE COMFORT ZONE
Learn how your comfort zone is your biggest barrier for managing stakeholders and controlling your career.
Learn to step out of your comfort zone by demystifying stakeholder management and get it down to earth.
