Is Your Program Aligned or Just Reporting Green?
Most programs drift into misalignment not because of bad decisions, but because nobody mapped the stakeholders who need to stay aligned. The Stakeholder Alignment Matrix prevents drift before it becomes a crisis.
This scorecard measures 4 dimensions:
- Information Needs — What data does each stakeholder need to stay engaged?
- Decision Authority — Who has final, approval, recommend, or inform rights?
- Influence Level — What is their actual influence on program outcomes?
- Alignment Status — Are they green, yellow, or red this week?
- Engagement Strategy — What specific actions maintain or restore alignment?
Built for Program Managers, PMO Directors, and IT leaders who need to keep stakeholders aligned across complex initiatives.
