When to use it

Use this canvas after you have created your ‘as is’ stakeholder map for your specific challenge space or domain.

Once you have identified your key stakeholders, use this tool to help you prioritize and uncover the most important stakeholders to engage and involve in your challenge space.

You will then be able to identify the key stakeholders needed to drive impact and change, but who are not yet motivated to be involved. These are the stakeholders to focus on first, because without them, positive impact and outcomes will not be possible.

How to use it

STEP 1

Create your ecosystem stakeholder map for your specific sustainability challenge domain before using this tool.

STEP 2

Use the matrix to prioritize your stakeholders. Think about whether your stakeholders are interested and/or vital to solving your sustainability challenge domain.

STEP 3

Stakeholders in the upper-left pink box are ‘not interested, but vitally important’ are the stakeholders that need to be onboarded to your challenge domain.

Hint: use the Ecosystem Stakeholder Empathy Map tool to help you figure out what could be blocking your stakeholder from engaging in your challenge space.
