Checklist

Stakeholder discovery interview guide

Ten minutes, eight questions and a closing one

Checklist of the eight questions and closing question in the stakeholder discovery interview guide.
Eight questions, ten minutes, and one question that surfaces who you missed.

A ten-minute interview guide for agencies speaking to each stakeholder at a prospect before a proposal. It mixes open questions with one choice, one scale and one multiple-choice question so answers can be compared by team. Koji can run it as a text or voice interview.

  • Open: who else has a say, and where do you differ?

  • Open: what would be different on your desk in a year?

  • Open: what do the project leads not see from where they sit?
