What a finished NURS 4110 Week 6 policy stakeholder map looks like
Roughly four pages, organized around a stakeholder table and a two-by-two grid. The table lists seven stakeholders: the state hospital association, the state nurses association, a nurses' union, the legislature's health committee chair, the state health department that would enforce the law, a patient advocacy coalition and hospital chief nursing officers. Each row states the group's likely position, its core interest, its source of influence and what it would need to hear. The grid places them by power and interest, putting the committee chair and hospital association in the high-high quadrant. A context section covers the political calendar, hospital finances and public trust in nurses, each in a short paragraph. A closing section names the two stakeholders whose movement would most change the bill's chances and explains why.
How a NURS 4110 Week 6 example is structured
Table, grid, context, leverage. The table leads, since the grid depends entirely on the judgments behind it, and a reader can check each placement against the row that explains it. Positions are written in each group's own terms; the hospital association's concern is framed as flexibility and cost, not as opposition to safety, because a map that caricatures opponents cannot guide a real argument. The grid follows Mendelow's power and interest matrix and is kept to one figure with a sentence of interpretation beneath it. Context follows the grid so it can explain placements, for instance why a budget year raises the hospital association's power. The leverage section is the analytic payoff, naming the committee chair and the chief nursing officers as the two whose movement would matter most, the officers because they sit on both sides of the argument.
Seven stakeholders in one table
Position, interest, influence and what each needs to hear. Every grid placement can be traced back to its row.
Opponents stated in their own terms
The hospital association argues flexibility and cost, and the map records it that way. Caricature would make the analysis useless.
One grid, one interpretive sentence
Mendelow's matrix places each group by power and interest, with a line beneath saying what the pattern shows.
Context that explains placements
Budget timing, hospital finances and public trust in nurses each account for why a group sits where it does.
Where movement would matter
The committee chair and the chief nursing officers are named as the two shifts most likely to change the bill's odds.
Where marks go in NURS 4110 Week 6
Stakeholder maps are marked on accuracy and fairness before insight. A map missing an obvious party, the agency that would enforce the law, loses completeness credit that no amount of analysis recovers. Many rubrics then examine whether positions are plausible and specific; labeling every opponent as resistant to change looks like lobbying rather than analysis, and a policy course is quick to notice. The grid is often scored for consistency with the table, so a group described as indifferent but placed high on interest undermines the whole figure. Context sections lose points when they list political, economic and social factors without tying any to a placement. Sources count here as well, since a stakeholder's position should be traceable to a public statement or published analysis rather than assumed.

NURS 4110 Week 6 questions, answered
How many stakeholders should a policy map include?
Every party with real power or real interest in the outcome, which for a state staffing bill often runs to six or eight. The example has seven, including the enforcement agency that weaker maps forget. Adding groups with no stake pads the table without improving the analysis, while leaving out an enforcer or a funder produces a map that misreads how the bill would actually be decided.
What is a power and interest grid?
A two-by-two figure associated with Mendelow that places stakeholders by how much influence they hold over a decision and how much they care about it. High-power, high-interest groups are the ones a policy argument must engage directly. The example uses the grid to show that the health committee chair and the hospital association sit in that quadrant, which shapes who the eventual brief addresses.
Should opponents' positions be presented sympathetically?
Accurately, which often reads as sympathetically. The example states the hospital association's position as a concern about flexibility and cost rather than opposition to safe staffing, because that is how the association would put it. A map that describes opponents unfairly misleads its own author, and a nurse arguing to a legislator needs to answer the real objection, not a weaker one.
