When to use it

Use Stakeholder Audits to evaluate how effective your current stakeholder engagement is and where it can improve. Reviewing what is working and what is missing gives a clear starting point for a stronger engagement approach.

Use it when

You suspect engagement is patchy and want an honest assessment.
A new project is a good moment to review existing relationships.
You need a baseline before designing a fresh engagement plan.

Not the right tool when

You are ready to design the plan itself. Use Stakeholder Engagement Plan.
You first need to know who your stakeholders are. Use Stakeholder Mapping & Analysis.
