Part 2
Instructions
Assess real-world project failure due to poor stakeholder management.
Search the CSU Online Library and internet to find an example of a project that failed due to poor stakeholder management. (Note: While the reasons for project failure are many, not all failures are linked to stakeholder management deficiencies. Projects with many stakeholders such as highly visible public projects and/or failed product development launches are good examples to begin your search.) Your submission should include the following:
1.Brief summary of project,
2.Explanation of why the project is considered to be a failure,
3.Description of the stakeholder issue linked to the project failure along with your supporting rationale, and
4.Recommendations for what the project team could have done to avoid the problem.
Submit a minimum one-page document, not counting the title page or the reference list. Your submission should include at least one external source.
