Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Keep informed

    Why it's wrong here

    "Keep informed" is incorrect for high power, low interest stakeholders because it fails to proactively manage their potential dissatisfaction. These stakeholders possess significant influence, and merely informing them does not address the need to prevent them from becoming problematic. This option is tempting as it suggests engagement, and it is the correct strategy for stakeholders with low power but high interest, who require updates to maintain their engagement without needing active appeasement.

  • Keep satisfied

    Why this is correct

    Keep satisfied is appropriate for high power, low interest stakeholders.

  • Monitor

    Why it's wrong here

    Monitor is for low power, low interest stakeholders.

  • Manage closely

    Why it's wrong here

    Manage closely is for high power and high interest.
