MANAGEMENT OF THE STAKEHOLDERS
Response to question 1.1
a)An important role is played by each and every stakeholder for the aim of successful
completion of the project which in this case forms the up gradation of the road which is
namely MR952 road. The up gradation of the road becomes a crucial factor as it is
currently made of wearing course of gravel and is being aimed of being converted into a
wearing course which would be of bituminous (Mok, Shen and Yang 2015). The
procedure of up gradation of this particular road into bituminous wearing course
additionally focuses on the inclusion of management structures for soil erosion along
with storm water as well.
The methods which were utilized for the selection of the stakeholders comprises
of the abilities of the stakeholders who could successfully contribute their respective
inputs for systematic up gradation of this particular road. Basically, several capabilities
with respect to the up gradation of the roads needs to be possessed by the stakeholders
for getting selected for this particular project. This is referred to as power of the
stakeholders (Eskerod and Jepsen 2016). Several kinds of attributes of the stakeholder
which helps the managers in getting drawn towards them comprises of urgency, power
and legitimacy. In simple words, power of the stakeholders becomes a selection factor
because it indicates towards the capacity or the abilities of the stakeholder for producing
various effects for accomplishing the desired outcomes in a successful manner.
Apart from this, legitimacy indicates towards the perceived appropriateness or the
validation of any kind of claim of the stakeholders with respect to any kind of stake.
Higher degrees of legitimacy needs to be represented by the customers, employees etc.
Additionally, Urgency indicates towards the degrees up to which any kind of claims
made by any of the stakeholders with respect to the business demands for an
immediate response or attention (Doh and Quigley 2014). Next essential factor becomes

informed regarding the timing of the commencement as well as the completion of those
particular activities which would turn helpful for upgrading the road from a gravel
wearing course to a much improvised bituminous wearing course (Eskerod, Huemann
and Savage 2015). The most interesting factor is that lower levels of the engagement of
the stakeholders is utilized for explaining and informing. Several kinds of formats at this
particular level might comprise of coverage of news, reports or publications.
Middle engagement levels would in turn mostly focus on the occurrence of
communication by numerous procedures of formats like that of social media, newsletter,
conferences and surveys to name a few (Johnson-Cramer, Berman and Post 2017).
Additionally, higher stakeholder management levels would be linked with the responsive
or active attempts for the aim of involving each and every stakeholder in the context of
decision making.
Response to question 1.2
Several kinds of methods which turned out to be successful in the context of easy
management of the stakeholders turned out to be transparency as the successful
engagement as well as the management of the stakeholder. The important fact is that
successful engagement of the stakeholders demands for several enterprises like these
for the aim of putting of efforts along with several kinds of resources with respect to
managing, reviewing, strengthening and at the same time recasting the relationships
with every single stakeholder associated with this particular organization be the
stakeholder is old or the stakeholder is new.
With each and every passing, transparency is becoming a necessary factor which
would help a lot with respect to successful engagement of the stakeholders for the
successfully accomplishing and at the same time achieving each and every goal
associated with the upgrading this particular road from gravel towards bituminous
wearing course (Yang and Shen, 2015). The stakeholders needs to be engaged on the
basis of sustainability which is equally important as well. It in turn possesses higher
rates of success because it would in turn demand the involvement of several kinds of
