Instructions:
Based on the definitions given above and the materials you have collected for your Stakeholder Analysis, complete the following:
1. Compile as much information as you believe necessary about the existing, baseline levels of each of the performance elements indicated above for the CHI you have adopted for your project. Write out in narrative format under the heading “Existing Levels” and use the table format above to highlight key elements.
2. Once you feel like you’ve pulled together relevant information to establish the baseline levels on each of the elements above, identify what is the extra that is necessary, on each element, in order to fulfill goal ambitions stakeholders have for the CHI. Write out in narrative format under the heading “Needed Commitments” and use the table format above to highlight key elements.
3. Examine the gap between existing and necessary commitment levels and identify what each stakeholder you have identified in your Stakeholder Analysis can contribute to “closing the gap”. Write out in narrative format under the heading “Gap Analysis” and use the table format above to highlight key elements.
