External Stakeholders | Glossary

Definition

Stakeholders in Agile Projects, carry broadly the same definition as they do in Non-Agile Projects. They are parties who are impacted by the status of the Project. They can be both External (Shareholders, Investors) and Internal (Employees, Partners) in nature.

The key difference in Stakeholders in Agile Projects is that they are represented by one Product Owner, and the role is scalable as per the needs of the Project.
