imagine you are the Change Manager responsible for embedding a change (from the list below) in this organization. You will need to thoroughly research this organization to consider who their unique, independent, stakeholder groups are. The goal in this assessment is to be specific in each element of your stakeholders impacts, benefits, reasons for resistance, and how, specifically, you would engage and support each unique group.

There is no word limit for this section, but I do encourage you to be concise and specific (avoid general statements that don't reflect your research of each specific group within your chosen organization).

Remember, this information will help to frame a portion of your overall Change Management Plan , so I recommend being very thorough and well researched in this information.

Choose that area of change.

• Implementing a new mandate (example: N95 masks or a Covid-19 vaccine mandate)

You are responsible for planning, executing, and sustaining the change. Using the Stakeholder Assessment Template provided below, fill out an initial stakeholder analysis:

1. Identify 3 (three) internal Stakeholder Groups and 1 (one) external Stakeholder Group. Assume TWO Stakeholder Groups will be very resistant to the change. Fill in the information required for each Stakeholder Group.

2. Write a brief reflection (100 words) on why a Stakeholder Assessment is a useful tool to help do high-quality change management.

Describe the organization you have chosen. Include an overview, their mission, vision, values, and a description of their primary clients.
Stakeholder Group	What is the impact of the change on the stakeholder group?	What are the benefits to the stakeholder group?	Why might the stakeholder group resist change?	How will you engage the stakeholder group in the change? What supports might be need to successfully implement change?
