2.3 Stakeholder Communication (1 mark)
Communication method PULL or PUSH Justification
Usage of Video Conference
Pull There is no need of having “push” by the
external stakeholders or any kind of
communication related to motivation which
is required by them which means they are
to be convinced for the purpose of taking
active participation in the project
3. REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT
3.1 Traditional Owner/s of the land on which CQ University campuses are located
One of the approaches which is most preferred is the appointment of a particular stakeholder from
each of the campus of the university who would be entirely associated with representing the
respective campuses. Selection of only one stakeholder for all campuses is not considered to be a
feasible option and the reason behind this is that they are not having any sufficient amount of
experience in all the campus when considered together.
