Title: Assignment 2 - Stakeholders
Course: KVCC_BUS205 > Section: Assignments

As part of the discussion in class we talked about how in terms of systems analysis one of the most important items is the identification of the applicable stakeholders. The purpose of this assignment is to start the development of these selection skills with emphasis on the ability to both identify and classify the applicable parties. What I want you to do is examine your current or past workplaces and identify all of the stakeholders and then organize them into the group that best fits. Try to think of all the parties that would possibly be considered a stakeholder without narrowing things down to a distinct purpose. Remember the goal is to start to identify these stakeholders. You can use personal names however the positions are more important here. Once this is done you will need to answer the following questions.

Categories

1.        External

2.        Internal

3.        Operational

4.        Executive

1.        In terms of the makeup of this particular organization which category has the most amount of influence when it comes to being a stakeholder? Why do you think this is the case?

2.        Do you think that this result is typical to other businesses? Why?

3.        Which category do you think provides the most amount of critical input when it comes to the creation of an information system? Why?

4.        What category do you think provides the least amount of information and is possibly a hindrance? Why?

5.        What external stakeholder has the most influence on this organization?

6.        Describe three methods that would enable these groupings to work together in a collaborative and effective fashion.

7.        Who should be the evaluator of what is considered effective?

8.        How about efficient?

9.        If you could remove one stakeholder from this list which would it be? Why?

10.    If you could add a stakeholder who would it be? Why?

As with everything make sure that you back up your evidence with support.
