Step Three: Prepare a Prescribed Plan to Engage Stakeholders
After carefully analyzing the influence and impact stakeholders can
potentially have on the school, create a plan to engage these stake-
holders. This matrix should be created by key school leaders and
will include activities, events, meetings, and various communication
methods to employ involving stakeholders. Assigning ownership of
these efforts is critical for effective deployment.
“UNDERSTANDING HOW STAKEHOLDERS CAN BE INVOLVED AND
THEN TRULY PLACING THEM IN AREAS WHERE THEIR GIFTS AND
TALENTS CAN BE USED WILL GROW YOUR CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.”
