The stakeholder wheel is a framework used to categorize stakeholders based on their relationship to
the organization or project. It typically includes categories such as customers, partners, suppliers,
regulators, and competitors , among others.
Key Considerations:
Regulators, Compliance, Owners: While regulators and owners are valid stakeholders, "compliance"
is not a stakeholder category but rather a function or responsibility.
Competitors, Customers, Partners: These are all valid stakeholder categories commonly found on the
stakeholder wheel.
Competitors, Consumers, Providers: While competitors and consumers (a synonym for customers)
are valid, "providers" is not a standard term used in the stakeholder wheel.
Contractors, Partners, Suppliers: Contractors are not typically included as a primary stakeholder
category on the stakeholder wheel, though partners and suppliers are.
Evaluation of Each Option:
A . Regulators, Compliance, Owners:
"Compliance" is not a stakeholder category; it refers to adherence to rules or regulations.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
B . Competitors, Customers, Partners:
These are all valid stakeholder categories found on the stakeholder wheel.
Conclusion: This is correct .
C . Competitors, Consumers, Providers:
While competitors and consumers (customers) are valid, "providers" is not a standard stakeholder
category.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
D . Contractors, Partners, Suppliers:
Contractors are not typically included as a primary stakeholder category on the stakeholder wheel.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
Final Recommendation:
The list that only includes stakeholders shown on the stakeholder wheel is:
B . Competitors, Customers, Partners
