Week 10 Discussion Managing Stakeholders

Week 10 Discussion

“Managing Stakeholders” Please respond to the following:

  • From
    the e-Activities, assume that you are the manager of the project that
    will set up a new headquarters office for the Federal Bureau of
    Investigations in the Washington, DC area. This new building will allow
    FBI to consolidate all of its offices
    in DC into a single area. While no site has been selected, once a site
    is selected, there will be a lot of pressure to complete the project
    ahead of schedule and under budget, which is uncommon here. Determine
    the main stakeholders, and specify the overall way in which you would
    manage the stakeholders in order to complete your project. Support your
    rationale. BTW: Here is a link to the FBI office move: https://www.fbi.gov/news/testimony/proposal-for-a-new-consolidated-fbi-headquarters-building
  • Review
    the project stakeholder management processes that were discussed in
    Chapter 13 of your PMBOK textbook. Determine the fundamental skills that
    a project manager should possess in order to successfully manage
    stakeholders. Support your response with one (1) example of a project
    manager using such skills to manage stakeholders.
