Stakeholders have a significant influence on the aims of an organisation. They are the people who are affected by or interested in the business. In some organisations the shareholders are stakeholders, and at times have some of the decision power. In trade organisations, customers are also considered stakeholders; therefore their needs are part of the organisation’s overall objectives.

It is undisputable that the U.S has opened the doors to many countries, establishing multinational corporations and emerging new markets to explore international waters to help other nations flourish and gain a competitive advantage. For many years Africa has been floating in the U.S radar. The U.S has looked for ways to cultivate the land, understand the culture; people and strengthens its relationship with the African government. In recent years the continent has grown significantly with the opportunity of U.S market access and the creation of new export trade avenues to Africa. In May 2000, The African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), a unilateral, trade agreement between Sub-Saharan Africa and the United States, launched new efforts to grow the African market. The enactment was deliberately created for eligible countries to participate in trade opportunities and to export their products to the U.S markets with duty free privileges. The opportunity has developed a substantial amount of trade and investment between Sub-Saharan countries and the U.S. Subsequently, the Doing Business in Africa (DBIA); campaign took effect on November 2012. The campaign’s major goal was to connect American businesses with African partners, to support existing and new U.S investments in Africa. Additionally, to inform and provide access to American companies to finance their exports and reduce barriers to trade and investment in Africa. In August 2014, the U.S and African leaders Summit

In this article, Jen Fela explains the the 2006 World Cup set the standards of environmental “green goals” for future FIFA World Cups and how environmental measures have been taken for the 2010 World Cup. Fela reminds the reader that all mega sports events come with a price, and the 2010 World Cup has the hefty carbon price tag of 2.75 million metric tons of emissions. To combat this environmental threat, she calls South Africans to use the same techniques (such as using rainwater tanks and planting thousands of trees) that the Germans used to host the first carbon neutral World Cup in 2006. She also states that with the increase use of coal-generated electricity in South Africa, new ways must also be formulated to reduce the tournament’s carbon

In my opinion, stakeholder management is significant to the success of every project in every organization. By engaging the right people in the right way in all projects, it can lead me to be successful. However, my plan to engage stakeholders will start from I have to understand clearly each step of stakeholder management so that I can potentially communicate and engage with my stakeholders.

Second, prioritizing stakeholders is a useful way to know who affect or are affected by my work. It can be people or organizations.
