Background:
The focus of the study was to assess stakeholders’ organization on health project management: in the case of network health empowerment NGO, Kampala-Uganda.
Methodology:
The study used a cross-sectional survey and a quantitative data collection approach. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, the target population was(140)and the sample size was 103 respondents who were selected using the Sloven formula.
Results:
Another notable revelation is that labor unions (67%) and insurance companies (60%) are their stakeholders, indicating that some of these organizations may have issues with their understanding and application of some of the stakeholder management processes, which could pose a challenge to them when it comes to getting the most out of their stakeholders.
All respondents consider communication to be a critical component of stakeholder management processes, and as such, respondent organizations incorporate it into their management processes; nevertheless, it was revealed that this occurs in various and sometimes comparable ways.
Delays in timeliness, inadequate quality objectives, limited collaboration from key actors, difficulty in reaching consensus, overburdening of the project team, disinformation, and incorrect understanding of project objectives and activities, which impede project implementation and successful completion when expected deliverables are not met on time and within budget. The majority of the difficulties have distinct effects, but some have cross-cutting effects, such as limited/poor donor commitment (inadequate/delayed cash release) and dwindling donor support.
Conclusion:
Successful management of project Stakeholders and eventual realization of project objectives hinge heavily on a better and clearer understanding by Project teams of the complex stakeholder trade-offs and related challenges as well as the necessary processes required to manage the challenges.
Recommendations:
There is a need to educate all stakeholders on the project and clear communication from the beginning to ensure better understanding among all stakeholders.
