Who is the Stakeholder Communication Plan template for?


This stakeholder communication plan template is designed for project managers and communication professionals across all industries to plan and execute effective communication strategies with stakeholders. This template provides a step-by-step approach to creating a stakeholder communication plan that can be tailored to any project or organization.

1. Define clear examples of your focus areas


Focus areas are the primary goals of your stakeholder communication plan. For example, you may want to focus on improving stakeholder communication, strengthening communication channels, or enhancing communication quality. You should define each focus area and list the objectives and action steps that you plan to take to achieve your goals.

2. Think about the objectives that could fall under that focus area


Objectives are the measurable goals you want to achieve for each focus area. For example, under the focus area “improve stakeholder communication”, you may have objectives like “increase stakeholder engagement” and “increase stakeholder participation.”

3. Set measurable targets (KPIs) to tackle the objective


KPIs are the measurable targets that will help you track and evaluate progress towards your objectives. For each objective, you should set initial and target values for the KPI you’re measuring. For example, for the objective “increase stakeholder engagement” you might measure the number of stakeholder meetings, and set an initial and target value for that KPI.

4. Implement related projects to achieve the KPIs


Projects (actions) are the initiatives you need to complete in order to achieve the KPIs. For example, to increase the number of stakeholder meetings, you might implement an action that involves increasing the frequency of stakeholder meetings. To increase stakeholder participation, you might implement an action that involves establishing a communication plan.
