Explanation
When assessing the severity of change impacts during a stakeholder impact assessment, one of the criteria that can be used is the coverage of impact. The coverage of impact refers to the proportion of a given stakeholder group that are impacted by a change. For example, if a change affects 80% of the employees in a department, the coverage of impact is high. The other options are not criteria for assessing the severity of change impacts, but rather factors or outcomes of other processes or activities in the change process.
