Step 3: whole group discussion - who have you prioritised and why?

The workshop leader should now ask each breakout group to name the top three stakeholders that have been prioritised. You can write this up on a clean (digital) whiteboard or with post-it notes.

Ask each group questions like:

  • Who have you prioritised and why?

  • Were there any groups that you considered important but didn’t prioritise?

  • Is it easy or hard to know what the prioritised stakeholders think?

  • Do we already understand these stakeholders well?

Try to find the top three stakeholders that all groups agree with. If there are disagreements, perhaps this is telling you that people have very different expectations of the project or activity. Use this time to work this out, it’s not helpful to skip past it for the sake of it.

You should end with a list of prioritised stakeholders.

Step 4: wrap up and next steps

It’s now time to thank your participants for their contributions and summarise what you have achieved in your workshop. You should set out the next steps. You might send an email summary after the meeting setting out the prioritised list of stakeholders, or a meeting invitation to and overview of the next workshop. Set clear expectations of your colleagues, including how they can get more involved if they want to.
