Stakeholder Engagement Programme
A multimedia, experiential, customised program that focuses on identifying and compiling a relationship management plan for all stakeholders, based on their influence and interest. The workshop is delivered in two ways: classroom and online using the VILT mode (Virtual Instructor-Led Training).
