Engagement approach

Stakeholder engagement is the targeted process we use to engage stakeholders to achieve a particular predefined outcome.

For each stakeholder, we select an appropriate engagement approach from the following:

  • Inform - Provide stakeholders with information.
  • Consult - Obtain stakeholders' feedback.
  • Involve - Work directly with stakeholders to ensure their views are considered.
  • Collaborate - Partner with stakeholders during decision-making.
  • Empower - Place the final decision-making responsibility in stakeholders' hands.
