Join us for a tailored workshop designed specifically for WISTA Norway. This session will dive deep into Stakeholder Management, with connections to key leadership topics, including: Emotional Intelligence, Communication Skills, Psychological Safety, Empowering Others, Feedback and Challenging Conversations
Managing important working relationships
In this workshop, you will become more conscious about who has influence on and interest in your work. Usually, this field of people is broader than you think and if you are not aware of them or don’t quite know how to manage your relationships with them, your work, projects and results might not get the recognition or support they deserve.
You will gain insight into how to focus and improve your interactions with these interested and influential parties so you can be more efficient and targeted in your communications.
Some outcomes might be recognizing:
You could reduce time spent on people who have little influence, even if they have a loud voice.
You need to spend more on people and roles who are important for the success of your work.
Which relationships may be challenging for you and consider what skills/tools you need to be better at managing those relationships.
Create a communications plan to improve the support your work needs.
Here are some thought questions ahead of time:
Who do you know who has influence over your work?
Who is interested in your work and could possibly have more influence over it if they knew more about it?
Who could be interested in or could influence your work positively if they knew more?
Who holds an important role but may be difficult to speak with?
Who takes up too much of your time without contributing to the success or outcome of your work?
Who around you have an agenda that affects your daily work?
