Stakeholders in a project are typically divided into primary and secondary stakeholders. Primary stakeholders are the key decision makers who are actively involved in a project and hold huge influence over its results. Secondary stakeholders may be present at meetings or play some part in the project but do not have much influence.
There are many types of project management methodologies. Agile and lean methods are among the most well-known. Heuristics, critical chain project management, and agile and lean approaches are also very popular. The PRINCE2 method is a prime example of structured project management. It divides projects into seven stages, which include the process of directing a project starting a project, starting the project, managing boundaries for products, controlling the stage, Managing the Delivery of Products, and Closing a project.
