Stakeholder assessment blank excel template
A dynamic Stakeholder Assessment tool using the Power × Interest framework. Auto-calculates engagement priority scores, places each stakeholder in the correct grid quadrant, and recommends tailored engagement strategies — all live in Excel.
Knowing who your stakeholders are is one thing. Knowing how to prioritise and engage them is what separates average change programs from exceptional ones. This Stakeholder Assessment tool gives you a rigorous, structured method to map, analyse, and manage every stakeholder — with the formulas doing the analytical work for you.
Enter your stakeholder details, rate their Power and Interest, and the tool automatically calculates their priority score, assigns them to the correct Power × Interest quadrant, and recommends a tailored engagement strategy — no manual analysis required.
