Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to provide evidence of the influence of stakeholder
behaviour and relationship building practices on stakeholder management in Public Private
Partnership (PPP) projects.in Uganda
Design/Methodology/approach - We study 115 PPP projects in Uganda using a cross sectional
design. Data was collected using a questionnaire survey and analyzed using Statistical Package
for Social Sciences.
Findings - Results indicate that stakeholder behaviour and relationship building practices
are significant predictors of stakeholder management in PPP projects. The interaction
(multiplication) of understanding of stakeholders’ behaviours and building relationships
among them explains more of the variance in overall project management for project success
than the direct influence of understanding of stakeholders’ behaviours or relationship building
on their own.
Implications - In order to manage stakeholders in PPP projects, there is need to build strong
stakeholder relationships at the same time understanding project stakeholder behaviours.
Originality - We adduce evidence of the efficacy of understanding stakeholder behaviours and
designing appropriate relationship building practices for better stakeholder management.
