When things get tense, everyone looks out for themselves. The newspapers are full of examples every day. This causes major delays in projects and societal challenges. The way out seems simple: look for a solution that is good for everyone. But how do you do that?
Strategic Stakeholder Engagement (SSE) is now fully established and has even become a required methodology for many complex projects. To better support you in working with SSE, the Strategic Stakeholder Engagement Handbook has been completely updated in this 2.0 version. With concrete tools for dealing with contradictions in complex environments, you—as a stakeholder engagement professional, project leader, manager, or executive—will gain the guidance you need. Marc Wesselink has further elaborated on dealing with trust, power, and complexity in both the underlying vision and the approach, thereby enriching and deepening the concept of mutual gains.
