Assessment guidance / brief
You are a intern within the accounts team at a cloud solution provider company such as AWS who created a stakeholder map for rolls royce holdings
· create a customer stakeholder map (stakeholder map draft file) and/or an internal stakeholder map with
supporting reflective narrative (equivalent to 4,000
words) reflecting their drivers and needs in the buyer/seller process
including a proposal on strategy to be adopted or summary of approach adopted.
·
You may want to compare and contrast two customers ( compare the stakeholder map draf and the internal stakeholder map)
·
Bring in psychological models (from this module, previous modules and
/or that you have researched yourself). Reflect on what kind of tactics you
would use or bring into a conversation / meeting with them. (In the briefing Doc)
·
Adapt the template stakeholder maps to suit your needs and findings.
·
Structure your reflections using a reflective model like Gibbs reflective cycle
Points for consideration:
1.
This is a reflective narrative so write it in the 1st person.
3.
Structure your document to guide the reader through.
4.
Use a broad range of sources: reading list, academic journals, industry
journals, colleagues, digital sources etc.
5.
Bring your critical analysis from these sources into your reflective
narrative and draw conclusions from this for the reader. Do you agree, disagree
– is it relevant to your practice? Your organisation? Make the connections
clear.
