Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

Course subject(s) Module 2. Stakeholder Perspectives that enrich your vision

As in every module of this course, now it is time to apply the new topics of Stakeholders, Power and Interest to your own case. In module 1 you selected one or more situations in your life that you want to get a firmer grip upon. Most likely your working life, but that is not a necessity. In this module we try to formulate what your role in this situation is. We also enrich your picture of the situation by including the perspectives of other stakeholders.

Let me help you with the following steps that guide you through this process.

Step 1 – Stakeholder identification 

Identify the many stakeholders that are present in your complex situation. Identify at least 10, but think of as many as you can. Include individuals, teams, groups, departments, organizations, ministers, directors, colleagues, friend, even the local coffee shop owner, whom you so nicely talk to about your work and who always seems to be interested and ready to give un-asked-for advice on any matter…
Don’t judge now, just list them.
