About
stakeholder-alignment is an owl-listener designer-skills expert guide for navigating stakeholder landscapes around design and product decisions. The skill produces stakeholder maps plotting influence versus interest, RACI matrices assigning Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed roles per decision, decision frameworks defining who needs input and how to resolve disagreements, and communication plans for feedback cadence. Developers and design leads reach for stakeholder-alignment when a project has competing approvers, unclear ownership on UX calls, or recurring miscommunication between engineering, design, and client stakeholders before locking scope for the next sprint or release milestone.
