Construction Stakeholder Management
1. Edition December 2009
416 Pages, Hardcover
Wiley & Sons Ltd
This book captures best practice in construction stakeholder
management using a range of international case studies. It
demonstrates stakeholder mapping, presents the power/interest
matrix and analyses a model for the timely engagement of
stakeholders.
The increased use of partnering and other relational forms of
contracting have underlined the need for project participants to
work together and also to be aware of all those who can affect or
be affected by a project and its associated developments.
Stakeholder management enables them to see this wider picture and
provides guidance for managing the diverse views and interests that
can manifest in the course of a project's life.
All construction projects have the potential for conflicts of
interest that can result in costly and damaging legal proceedings.
This new book advocates an alternative to dispute resolution that
is proactive, practical and global in its application.
Construction Stakeholder Management is therefore an
essential text for advanced students, lecturers, researchers and
practitioners in the built environment.
