# Stakeholder Influence Mapper Skill Turn a product initiative into a structured influence plan — who needs to be aligned, in what order, and exactly what to say to each person in their language. ## Required Inputs Ask the user for these if not provided: - **Initiative description** (what you want to do and why) - **List of key stakeholders** (name, role, relationship to initiative) - **Timeline pressure** (when do you need a decision?) - **Any known objections or political context** (what you're already aware of) ## Process 1. Build stakeholder map with: role, primary concern, decision authority (blocker / influencer / informed), current stance (supportive / neutral / resistant / unknown) 2. Identify the critical path of conversations — who must be won before others 3. For each stakeholder, lead with their concern, not your ask 4. Prepare one likely objection per stakeholder and a prepared response 5. Flag any stakeholders who should NOT be approached until others are aligned 6. **Validate** — Confirm every "blocker" stakeholder has a specific tactic (not just "have a conversation"), and that the sequence accounts for political dependencies ## Output Structure ### Stakeholder Map:

Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
