Stakeholder Management & Managing Up Trainer Toolkit by Bodhih Training — built on programmes delivered to 2,000+ companies since 2008.
The workshop is on the calendar. The material isn’t.
Missed stakeholders
Projects blocked late.
Surprised managers
Trust damaged upward.
Long briefs
Executives lose the point.
Picture the evening before your programme.
Participants map their live project, reframe a proposal for three stakeholders, rehearse bad news with their “manager” and deliver a two-minute executive brief.
What you will deliver
A complete design, sequenced and timed — so every session has a purpose and every activity lands.

Walk in with data. Walk out with proof.
Trainers who measure before and after design sharper sessions — and get rebooked. AssessAll, our sister assessment platform, has assessments that sit naturally alongside this programme.
Walk in knowing where every participant starts.
Pair Stakeholder Management & Managing Up with an AssessAll assessment. Participants take it before the workshop, so you can tune the emphasis to the room; they retake it afterwards, so you can show the client what actually moved. Better-targeted sessions, and evidence that wins the next booking.

Nothing quite fits? Create your own assessment on AssessAll, or ask the AssessAll team to build one around this programme’s objectives for you.
That is the design work already done for you — research, session plans, slides, activities and assessments. Spend it facilitating, selling your next programme, or simply switching off.

The rest of the Bodhih family, when you need it
Make the workshop last beyond the room
A workshop is two days; the behaviour change takes months. Jobulary turns assessment evidence into a focused individual development plan (IDP) — a few quarterly objectives built on real work, re-measured honestly. Give every Stakeholder Management & Managing Up participant a plan to carry forward.
IDPs are launching soon — the working demo is free to explore now, no sign-up.
