Overview
Engaging all kinds of stakeholders in all kinds of organisations and projects provides the means for tackling many of the deeply rooted problems facing our societies. Stakeholding presents an opportunity for profoundly improving quality of life for all within whole communities. However, it presents many difficult challenges, particularly for leaders.The author of two other successful books dealing with Total Quality - The Quality Toolkit: A Practical Resource for Making TQ Happen and The Strategic Toolkit, John Marsh turns his attention in his latest book to how to manage stakeholder partnerships.
Today's business leaders are subject to ever-increasing pressures to deliver more for less. Ever-increasing rates of change in technology, economic and social conditions, along with turbulent political environments, mean that leaders are trying to manage complex issues and processes in very difficult circumstances.
This book is written for such leaders who find themselves in charge of organisations, partnerships of organisations or one-off projects that require stakeholder involvement. The book provides practical support and ideas.
