Stakeholder Relationship Management

Behind every successful project is a web of human relationships—and they don’t always run smoothly. This course helps project professionals at all levels manage the people side of project work: from navigating conflicting agendas to influencing without authority and earning stakeholder trust.

Participants will learn how to identify and prioritize stakeholders, including ways to pair human judgment with AI-driven tools to map relationships faster. Through hands-on practice, they’ll build skills for handling tough conversations, aligning expectations, and moving work forward—especially when personalities clash or communication breaks down.

Whether you’re dealing with passive resistance, unclear priorities, or difficult dynamics, this workshop gives you the tools to lead with confidence and build stronger project partnerships.

After this course, participants will:

• Quickly identify key stakeholders and anticipate potential friction points
• Apply strategies for building trust and credibility across teams and roles
• Influence without authority—even when stakes are high or timelines are tight
• Navigate difficult personalities and conversations with clarity and confidence
• Communicate in ways that build alignment, reduce tension, and keep momentum going
