Stakeholder Management and Communication Questions

Techniques for identifying, aligning, and communicating with diverse stakeholders across engineering, product, data, and business teams. Candidates should demonstrate methods to map stakeholder interests and decision rights, surface underlying motivations, design communication plans and cadences tailored to different audiences, and maintain transparent status and escalation processes. Include facilitation practices for building consensus when perspectives diverge, conflict resolution approaches that surface root concerns, and strategies to negotiate trade offs while preserving relationships and momentum.
