Engaging Stakeholders: Creating and Maintaining Good Working Relationships through Difficult Times

Consultancy Works half-day interactive workshop

 

Engaging stakeholders: Creating and maintaining good working relationships under pressure

Creating and maintaining good working relationships under pressure (and through difficult times) is key to successfully working in partnership. In the highly charged atmosphere of working with stakeholders and partners in a CSR relationship, differing values, approaches and ways of working can quickly solidify into barriers to mutual understanding and respect. Central to successful and sustainable relationships is an approach that acknowledges and values difference, while maintaining focus and energy on shared aims.

Engaging stakeholders: Creating and maintaining good working relationships under pressure is a very practical and participative workshop, offered by Consultancy Works and sponsored by Ethical Corp.

Based on sound principles of effective stakeholder engagement blended with 20 years of experience working with organisations, groups and partnerships in difficulty, this half day workshop is a great opportunity to take some time out and reflect on your challenges with your stakeholder relationships.

We will look at:

  • Setting up good working relationships from the very start
  • Helping all parties work well together
  • Review ongoing stakeholder relationships
  • What to do when stakeholder dialogue and relations are difficult

 

Workshop Objectives:
1  To deepen participants’ understanding of the key approaches and frameworks in creating and managing stakeholder relationships

2  To experience a range of approaches and practical techniques based on current stakeholder dilemmas

3  To create space for participants to consider and develop together creative new solutions to old and entrenched problems

Approach:

In the workshop, experienced facilitators will ask you to bring live issues to work with “in the room”. Through discussion, exercises and activities, we will enable you to think around your issue with the aim of helping you identify underlying patterns of behaviour and recognise obstacles to effective relationships. Working with us and your fellow participants, you will be encouraged to identify and share examples of good practice and emerge with clear strategies for action.
