STAKEHOLDERS MAPPING - A CASE OF INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS PROJECT

Implementation of projects often causes social conflicts, resulting in delays or even abandonment of the project. Those conflicts often arise or are revealed around projects related to the development and creation of logistics infrastructure. One of the reasons for this is the absence of an agreement between stakeholders, including local communities and community organizations. The key issue in managing every project is to identify stakeholders and potential conflicts. One of the methods is a stakeholder network map that recognises the persons and groups whose actions are crucial to the success of the project. In the paper we present the result of the survey identifying key public sector stakeholders and potential areas of risk in the Rail Baltica Growth Corridor project. On the basis of these recommendations the stakeholder management policy has been formulated.
