📖What it means
Anyone whose interests a decision touches, whether or not they get to make it. Naming stakeholders is what stops a change being judged only by whoever built it.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Owner
A stakeholder is affected; the owner is accountable.
Not: Requester
A stakeholder cares about the outcome; the requester asked for the work.
