About

How do you deliver results in multi-stakeholder partnerships? How do you navigate through a political minefield? How do you make best use of your network? This Multi-stakeholder Strategies - Analysis for Winning Coalitions course at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) will equip you with a toolkit to enable informed decisions and smarter actions in dealing with others.

Overview

Through a clearer understanding of the network environment in which you operate, you will be able to design more effective strategies for dealing with the multiple stakeholders who are crucial to your organization's success. The result will be a significant reduction in the risk of delays, of cost overruns and failures, which will allow you to reap benefits from strategic partnerships.

The actor and strategy models that are taught in this course, enable you to assess the key issues at stake, and to develop strategic scenarios to anticipate opportunities and challenges in your stakeholder environment. They allow you to determine what network linkages are missing or need strengthening, to identify arguments that might convince others, and to think about credible threats and promises as part of a negotiation strategy.

You will apply a mix of tools and models to real-world problems, including your own case. Models covered are social network analysis, comparative cognitive mapping, cooperative and non-cooperative game theory. Feedback and advice will be provided by course instructors.
