Explanation
The power/interest grid maps stakeholders on two axes: level of authority (power) and level of concern about project outcomes (interest). It directly answers the need to identify who has the most power relative to their interest, which guides communication and engagement strategies. The influence/impact grid (B) maps stakeholders by their ability to influence the project against the impact of project decisions on them. The salience model (C) uses three dimensions: power, urgency, and legitimacy. The stakeholder register (D) is a document, not an analytical grid.
