Challenges
- Manual capture of key stakeholder information in excel sheets which did not meet the needs of broader organisation as information is not easily extracted and meeting notes cannot be documented
- Increasing in stakeholder relationships in the future which will hinder the existing method of data management
- Not being able to populate stakeholder information (such as names, organisations, and email addresses) quickly for our colleagues. Therefore, a request to review and provide input to a guest list for an event is a time consuming and labour-intensive process.
- A lack of record keeping for individual stakeholders such as when we last met with them or what discussions we had.
- Information categorised only by industry, so extracting state-based information relating to specific stakeholders is not easy.
- When sending out newsletters to external stakeholders, names and email addresses have to be manually copied into a new excel spreadsheet and uploaded to Campaign Monitor (or any other platform)
