T.Walker and Beverly M. Lloyd Walker;Stakeholders have varied interests in commercial projects and they attend to their political interests. However, it becomes the responsibility of the project manager to manage the two opposing interests of the stakeholders.1.What is the range of Stakeholders’ Commercial Interests, i.e. is there a Taxonomy?The commercial interests of stakeholders vary depending on the impactthat they produce on the project. The impact can be positive or negative and the commercial interests of the stakeholders depends on the type of impact. 2.What is the range of Stakeholders’ Political Interests, i.e. is there a Taxonomy?The stakeholders who are directly related to the vendor company will have low political interests in the project. However, stakeholders such as the client will have high political interests as they will be more concerned about the political impact that would be executing from the success of the project. 3.How can you compare and contrast Commercial and Political factors?Commercial factors would be related to the market and the financial advantages that the stakeholder will achieve on successful completion of the project. The political factors are however directly related to the impact that the project will have on the society, the government and the radical change that it may bring upon the world.4.What are the theories and research behind Commercial and Political interests and factors?Commercial Interests and factors are primarily related to the financial profit and the advantage in the market that the stakeholders would gain upon successful implementation of the projects.

The negotiation would then be based on the urgency of the requirement stated by the project teamand the quadrant that the requirement falls into.7.Does the Four-quadrant perspective make sense to you?Yes, the Four-quadrant perspective of Cochran and Turner segregates different projects based on the goals and methodologies of the project. I can clearly use this four-quadrant theory to differentiate and identify the different types of projects. 8.What new ideas can be gained from the Four-quadrant perspective concept for ideas and practice around Commercial Negotiation?Various ideas for negotiation can be obtained from the four-quadrant perspective as it aids in understanding the nature of the project and therefore make better negotiation based on the analysis.9.Does the Organizational Learning Process perspective make sense to you?Yes, the perspective makes good sense.
