Boxes A, B and C are the key stakeholders of the project. The implications of each Box are summarized here:

 Box A: Stakeholders appearing to have a high degree of influence on the project, who are also of high
importance for its success. This implies that the project team will need to construct good working relationships
with these stakeholders, to ensure effective support for the project.
 Box B: Stakeholders of high importance to the success of the project, but with low influence. This implies that
they will require special initiatives if their interests are to be protected.
 Box C: Stakeholders with high influence, who can therefore affect the project outcomes, but whose interests are
not necessarily aligned with the overall goals of the project. This conclusion implies that these stakeholders may
be a source of significant risk, and they will need careful monitoring and management.

 Box D: Stakeholders in this Box, with low influence on, or importance to the project objectives may require
limited monitoring or evaluation, but are of low priority.
