External affairs is only credible if opponents recognize your account of the debate as fair. WorldbyFlow maps every stakeholder's stated position with its leverage in a non-partisan register, lays out the arguments on each side at their strongest, and reads the issue before the position.
Written for Runs external affairs and stakeholder engagement.·Runs in the Policy domain
Running external affairs and stakeholder engagement means knowing every side of an issue well enough to be trusted by most of them. The scans here build that knowledge: the positions on the record, the players and their leverage, the arguments laid out fairly, the issue itself before the framing, the voices of the constituencies involved, and a dossier on the agency that holds the pen.
Every stakeholder's stated position with its leverage and evidence, in a register both sides would accept. The map an engagement plan starts from.
Who holds what leverage on the issue, from documented positions. The coalition map with sources.
The arguments on each side at their strongest, with evidence. The fair page, for the briefing and for your own thinking.
The issue read before the position: how it is measured, who it falls on, what is known and disputed about its causes.
What the constituencies involved have said on the record, attributed. Farmers, nurses, small businesses, in their own words with sources.
The agency with jurisdiction: authority, people, documented positions, calendar. Who you are engaging.
The order matters. The first read gives you the structure; the next ones fill the parts that are hardest to source by hand.
You know the players. Check whether the read gives each side its actual position at its actual strength.
What they have said, attributed. The quotes for the briefing that are not yours.
Both sides at their strongest. The page an opponent would accept, which makes it the page you can use.
A hearing, a new position or a coalition change becomes a watched signal.
Every figure and quote links to where it came from. A claim the scan could not source is marked as such rather than dressed up.
Share the reads as pages the executive team can open before an engagement, or export them as PDFs for the stakeholder plan.
