1.1 Stakeholders - Focused

Tier file - what this step includes at the Focused tier (band S).

Focused is a truly light model: no workshop at this tier, and 1.1 is a preset form.

Included

  • Stakeholder questionnaire to all named stakeholders (1–3 stakeholders, single team), on the five-working-day window
  • Sponsor questionnaire to the sponsor
  • Send, run the chase cadence, extract the data, then run the analysis here: the divergence prompt over the questionnaire pair, the write-up after it, and the purpose statement drafted ready for confirmation with the Decider at the 1.5 playback.

Not Included (Upgrade Triggers)

  • Alignment workshop → Core (or a priced addition). If the questionnaire comes back showing conflict between stakeholders - on purpose, success, or priorities - Focused has no room to settle it: that is the signal this project isn't a Focused-tier Clarify.
  • 1-to-1 stakeholder interviews → Core.
  • Multiple teams or 4+ stakeholders → Core or above.

Outputs

  • Internal working artefacts only
  • The client-facing deliverable is the Keystone (1.5)
