Stakeholder engagement

[simplicity]

So just I'm on a project to implement a system across the whole company and I need some advice on managing user involvement. What's your approach? Create a big user group and meet monthly or have a smaller group who feed out messages to the wider user community?

Need more input!!!

There is a world of difference between a small enterprise and a multi-national. It is nationwide? Europe wide? Worldwide?

'User involvement' can mean anything from gathering requirements to skills assessments, comms and training and much more.

Your RACI would be a good start in determining your needs but it would need to have a number of perspectives covering business strategy to operations.

BTW, General is not usually a good place to start serious discussions

And so moved the Business / Contracts

If it is manageable number create a big user group, if not have a cut down number of 'leads' who then coordinate across a wider user community. HTH.
