Government Stakeholders
Here are 53 of the roles, job titles, departments or groups who may be stakeholders for a Government project . You can use this to generate a list of potential stakeholders or as a checklist in case you have missed any roles. This list is focused on Government projects , some generic roles are listed but for a fuller checklist see stakeholder list .
There are some overlaps between stakeholder groups in this list e.g. citizens and voters - better to have some duplication than miss potentially important stakeholders . This list is focused on the UK government, but is a useful starting point for any project .
