Stakeholder support is necessary for a successful change proposal project implementation. Consider your internal stakeholders, such as the facility, unit or health care setting where the change process is situated, and your external stakeholders, like an individual or group outside the health care setting. Why is their support necessary to the success of your project, and how you will go about securing that support?

Stakeholder support is necessary for a successful change proposal project implementation. Name one internal (facility, unit or health care setting where the change process is situated) and one external stakeholder (individual or group outside the health care setting) and (1) why their support is necessary to the success of your project, and (2) how you will go about securing that support.

Support of stakeholder is nevertheless essential in the successful implementation of change in proposal of project. However, the challenge of management and implementation of the project is being handled by many organizations through application of stakeholders and resistance theory. It is because of the fact resistance towards change can be compensated through activities aiming to terminate intended change in the organization. Staff and management of healthcare setting can be considered as the internal stakeholders that can affect the successful implementation of change project proposal. Similarly, suppliers and financial community can be served as the external stakeholder in healthcare settings. The support of the two stakeholders is essential in the success of the project as they possess the control criteria and non-substitutable resources which are essential to make appropriate decisions for the successful implementation of change in proposal. However, the support of the stakeholders can be secured through negotiation and discussion about change in project proposal and the efficacy of those changes (Peltokorpi, et.al., 2015).
