Creating a stakeholder map requires you to identify, assess, and plot your stakeholders. Sources such as interviews, surveys, feedback, or existing documentation can be used to list all the people or groups who have a stake in your product. You can use a scale of low, medium, or high to rate each stakeholder's impact and interest in your product. Qualitative or quantitative criteria, such as power, influence, dependency, involvement, expectations, or satisfaction can also be used to determine their impact and interest levels. Plotting these stakeholders on a four-quadrant matrix will help you identify the key stakeholders who have the most influence and involvement in your product (high impact, high interest), influential stakeholders who have the power to affect your product but may not be very interested or engaged (high impact, low interest), interested stakeholders who have a lot of enthusiasm or curiosity about your product but may not have much authority or effect (low impact, high interest), and peripheral stakeholders who have little or no impact or interest in your product (low impact, low interest). Managing each of these stakeholders accordingly will help you inform and reassure them as well as provide valuable insights for improving your product.
