Hi Mark Reed, I've not been able to access the refreshed guide due to your website being temporarily down, so it may be covered there, but I have followed with interest your article on the use of the term 'stakeholder' and reasons for describing it differently based on its colonial context. It's interesting to see that you are still using this wording? Is there a rationale for this?

#StakeholderAnalysis
Executive Summary - Key Conclusions:
📚 Critical Role of Stakeholder Analysis:
Effective stakeholder analysis is essential for the success of multi-stakeholder initiatives, particularly in environmental and resource management projects. It helps in identifying key stakeholders, understanding their interests, and developing strategies to engage them effectively.
📚 Diverse Stakeholder Interests:
Different stakeholders have varying expectations and interests that can impact the success of a project. Recognizing and addressing these differences early in the project can mitigate potential conflicts and ensure broader support for the initiative.
📚 Importance of Collaboration:
Engaging stakeholders in collaborative problem-solving processes can lead to more innovative and widely accepted solutions. Stakeholders who are involved in the development of solutions are more likely to champion and support the implementation of those solutions.
📚 Ongoing Stakeholder Engagement:
Stakeholder analysis is not a one-time activity but should be revisited regularly throughout the project to adapt to new developments and ensure continued alignment with stakeholder interests.
Risks:
📚 Stakeholder Conflicts:
Failure to adequately address the diverse interests of stakeholders could lead to conflicts that may hinder project progress. Ensuring that all voices are heard and that conflicts are managed constructively is crucial.
📚 Insufficient Engagement:
Inadequate engagement with key stakeholders, particularly those with high influence or importance, could jeopardize the success of the project. Continuous and meaningful engagement is necessary to build and maintain support.
📚 Overlooking Key Stakeholders:
Missing or underestimating the importance of certain stakeholders, especially those with lower visibility, could lead to gaps in the project’s implementation and unintended consequences.
📚 Time Constraints:
Collaborative processes require time to develop mutual understanding and to resolve conflicts. Rushing these processes could result in suboptimal outcomes or the alienation of important stakeholders.

Can you help us with our first research snapshot for 2024? We are running a microstudy to better understand how organizations make planning and prioritization decisions in an environment of significant capacity constraints. https://lnkd.in/gje6R9zX
The survey will remain open until the 14th of March.
Study Context: Organizations report that they are often finding themselves in a challenging position where they commit to delivering more strategically-important work than they have the capacity to reasonably handle.
As a consequence, business areas are faced with an overload of requests and must navigate the dilemma of managing both internal prioritization and external expectations when everything is important. And on the other side, business units requesting work are forced to deal with delays to some of their highest priority work.
Evaluation and learning consultant empowering social impact organizations to secure and sustain funding through strategic evaluation and capacity-building.
Current evaluation practices often focus on compliance, leaving untapped potential for strategic decision-making and maximizing impact.
Imagine uncovering hidden insights within your program data – powerful evidence of your organization's effectiveness and opportunities to optimize your approach. Strategic evaluation goes beyond the surface, empowering you to demonstrate true impact and propel your mission forward.
➡️ Let's discuss how to design an evaluation plan that drives results.
Information
With more information available than ever, from social media to meetings and constant reading, it can be overwhelming to navigate. I evaluate information based on two key criteria: relevance to my work and credibility. If it aligns with my efforts and withstands critical analysis, I take note and incorporate it. If not, I set it aside. This approach helps me focus on what truly matters, turning information into actionable knowledge that supports my objectives. In the next week figure out what information matters most to you and what you turn into actionable knowledge.
