- Create visual representations with stakeholder labels
Mitchell-Agle-Wood Salience Model
- Create Salience diagrams with seven stakeholder types
- Assess Power, Legitimacy, and Urgency attributes
- Identify Definitive, Dominant, Dangerous, Dependent, Dormant, Discretionary, and Demanding stakeholders
- Generate Venn diagram representations
Influence Network Visualization
- Build influence network visualizations
- Map relationships between stakeholders
- Identify key influencers and connectors
- Calculate network centrality metrics
RACI Matrix Creation
- Generate RACI matrices with validation
- Ensure single Accountable per activity
- Validate completeness of assignments
- Identify gaps and overlaps in responsibilities
Stakeholder Engagement Strategy

Usage
Generate Power-Interest Grid
Create a Power-Interest grid for these stakeholders:
[List of stakeholders with power and interest assessments]
Place each stakeholder in the appropriate quadrant and recommend engagement strategies.
Create RACI Matrix
Generate a RACI matrix for this project:
Deliverables: [List of deliverables/activities]
Stakeholders: [List of roles/individuals]
Ensure validation rules are applied.
Build Influence Network
Map the influence network for these stakeholders:
[Stakeholder list with relationships]
Identify key influencers and communication paths.
Calculate Engagement Index
Calculate the stakeholder engagement index:
Current engagement levels: [Stakeholder assessments]
Target engagement levels: [Desired states]
Generate gap analysis and action recommendations.

Stakeholder Analysis Frameworks Reference
Power-Interest Grid Quadrants
| Quadrant | Power | Interest | Strategy |
|---|
| Manage Closely | High | High | Engage deeply, regular communication |
| Keep Satisfied | High | Low | Keep informed, address concerns |
| Keep Informed | Low | High | Regular updates, involve in decisions |
| Monitor | Low | Low | Minimal effort, periodic checks |
RACI Definitions
- R (Responsible): Does the work
- A (Accountable): Ultimately answerable (only one per activity)
- C (Consulted): Provides input (two-way communication)
- I (Informed): Kept updated (one-way communication)
RACI Validation Rules
- Every activity must have exactly one A
- Every activity should have at least one R
- Minimize C's to prevent bottlenecks
- Not everyone needs to be involved in everything
Mitchell-Agle-Wood Stakeholder Types
- Dormant: Power only
- Discretionary: Legitimacy only
- Demanding: Urgency only
- Dominant: Power + Legitimacy
- Dangerous: Power + Urgency
- Dependent: Legitimacy + Urgency
- Definitive: Power + Legitimacy + Urgency
