Stakeholder Analysis
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Wongsa LaohasiriwongKhon Kaen University
Stakeholders
• Stakeholders are persons, groups or institutions with interests in a policy, program or project.
Stakeholders
• Primary stakeholders are immediate communities of interest.
Secondary stakeholders• Secondary stakeholders are the intermediaries
in the process, and may include government agencies and other institutional bodies (click here for more on these institutional groups and the role they can play).
• These groups seldom think of themselves as stakeholders, because they feel they "own" the process.
• Similarly research groups sometimes do not regard themselves as stakeholders because they feel they are providing "objective information" or "facts" into the situation.
Stakeholder analysis
• Stakeholder analysis is the identification of a project's key stakeholders, an assessment of their interests, and the ways in which those interests affect project riskiness and viability.
Stakeholder analysis
• It contributes to project design by identifying the goals and roles of different groups, and by helping to formulate appropriate forms of engagement with these groups.
Stakeholder Analysis• In a stakeholder analysis we look at "the stakeholder", "the relationship". • Different types of relationship need different kinds
of processes; some need more input to maintain. • Stakeholders similarly can be quite specific, such
as individuals or geographically identifiable groups of people.
• Others are more 'amorphous' and we have to think more laterally about how we are going to establish and maintain a relationship with them.
7 Steps in Stakeholder analysis
Step 1: Confirm the initial development problems,
possible target area and/or sector, and the beneficiaries.

Step 2: Prepare a blank stakeholder table.

Step 3: List all the stakeholders on cards and sort
them by categories of stakeholders, e.g., • population groups, • Public sector organizations (including local
government agencies), • Civil society, private sector, donor
agencies. Place each group on a separate row (column 1).

Step 4:• Discuss the interests of each group with
reference to the development problem—how and why they are involved.
• Complete one card for each group reflecting their dominant interest
(column 2).

Step 5: • Clarify how each group perceives the
development problem (column 3). • Use one card per group and state the perceived
problem as clearly as possible. • The phrase should be a negative statement and
not an implication of a solution, • e.g., roads are poorly maintained (correct), no
road maintenance system (incorrect).
7 Steps in Stakeholder analysisStep 6: • State the resources a group puts forth in support
or in opposition to the development problem. • Resources are financial and nonfinancial. While
formal organizations have both financial and nonfinancial resources, population and civil society groups have predominantly nonfinancial resources.
• These can include labor, political influence, volunteers, votes, strikes, and public pressure (column 4).
7 Steps in Stakeholder analysis
Step 7:• List the mandates or formal authority that
stakeholder shave to carry out a particular function.
• Generally, population groups, such as low-income groups, farmers, and women, do
not have mandates (column 5).
