Providing the fundamental processes and practices for improving stakeholder management in endeavours such as projects, and program management offices (PMO), this work offers guidance on organisational survival during mergers and acquisitions, preparing for the tender bidding, and marketing campaigns.
'Met all my needs and more. ...Recommended as a must read...despite having managed stakeholders for years but never stopped to really think of why they present unique problems and how to manage and prevent these issues becoming problems that could delay a project. If you don't read this book it's at your own peril.' F.A. Perry, reviewer on Amazon.co.uk, 5 out of 5 stars 'Dr Bourne's book provides a road map organisations can use to improve their management of stakeholder relationships to the benefit of both the stakeholders and the organisation.' Patrick Weaver, ProjectMangers.net '...The book is written in a way that lends itself to being read from start to finish or used as a reference, with each chapter title being quite self-explanatory... It is likely that any manager or leader who considers their stakeholders important, will find value in Lynda Bourne's book. Some might read out of interest and others will read with a view to bringing about positive change to the way in which stakeholder relationships are managed by their organisations.' Rob Llewellyn, CXO Transform
