The stakeholder engagement strategy defines how individuals and groups impacted by the change will be engaged throughout the initiative. According to ACMP, the purpose is to build trust, reduce resistance, and strengthen adoption by ensuring those affected are actively involved in the process. While resistant employees (B) and managers (A) are subsets of stakeholders, the broader objective is inclusivity of all affected groups (option D). Identification (C) is part of stakeholder analysis, not the engagement strategy itself.
(Reference: ACMP Standard, Process Group 2 -- Stakeholder Engagement Strategy; Outcome: Ensure engagement of individuals and groups impacted by the change.)

I’m a bit confused; I thought the strategy was about engaging all stakeholders, but now I’m thinking it’s more about the key individuals.

Engaging all managers seems important, but I feel like it might not cover everyone impacted. Maybe option C is better?

I think the main goal is to identify and engage those who are most affected by the change, so I’m leaning towards option D.

Definitely option D. The key is to identify and engage the people who will be impacted by the change, not just the managers or the resistant employees.

Engaging stakeholders is crucial for change success, but I'm not sure if the goal is to engage all managers specifically. I think option C or D is the way to go.

The way I see it, the objective is to make sure that individuals or groups affected by a change are engaged in the change effort. So I'm leaning towards option D.
