PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) — Question 193

The risk manager is conducting stakeholder analysis. Which technique should be used to help identify and manage expectations?

Answer options

• A. SWOT analysis
• B. Influence diagram
• C. Power/Interest Grid
• D. Interactive method

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Power/Interest Grid is the most effective technique for identifying and managing stakeholder expectations, as it categorizes stakeholders based on their level of power and interest. SWOT analysis and Influence diagrams serve different purposes and are not specifically designed for stakeholder expectation management. The Interactive method may engage stakeholders but does not systematically analyze their influence and interest.
