Hi Chris,
I feel it helps thinking it differently in the way the
stakeholder/constituency approach suggests:
Your enemy is _not_ a stakeholder of your organisation. They are your
_enemy_ (competitor etc)!
They (at the moment and if unsuccessful) hold absolutely no stake in your
organisation. They might want to though :o) !
They are, however, a constituency that might influence your decision-making
I used to be happy using stakeholder for everything. Bryn cured me of it.
Nowadays, I find separating the ideas helpful - reading the list, obviously
others don't!
All the best,
Terry
