The shift from an individual contributor to a people manager requires a transformational shift in the mindset. As a manager, one needs to become a strategic partner for stakeholders by engaging and nudging them while advancing service excellence. An engaged stakeholder network can multiply the influence of our work. A proactive systemic approach to stakeholder engagement takes us beyond successfully navigating the stakeholder map to co-create a new future.
