About this course

Project stakeholders come in all shapes and sizes and while the expectations of some may be straight forward and closely aligned with a project's goals, others may have expectations which are unknown, or not achievable given a project's purpose and scope.
One of the most challenging aspects of many projects is managing stakeholder expectations. Learn to do it well, and you will have a much easier time with your project, and be much more likely to succeed. Do it poorly, and before you know it, you may be bogged down in endless meetings and complaints.

- identify your project's stakeholders
- understand the importance of managing them
- effectively define stakeholders' influence and requirements for your projects
