What are the five levels of stakeholder engagement?

The five stakeholder engagement levels are unaware, resistant, neutral, supportive, and leading. Unaware stakeholders do not know about the project or its potential impact. Resistant stakeholders are aware but oppose the project or its changes. Neutral stakeholders are aware but neither supportive nor resistant. Supportive stakeholders understand the project and actively support its success. Leading stakeholders are actively engaged in ensuring the project succeeds and champion it to others.
