Since the course is built from a South African perspective, it will further provide individuals with guidelines on how to build stakeholder relations in compliance to the King report on Corporate Governance. Since the King report is largely concerned about accounting and general governance principles, it is essential to equip individuals dealing with these aspects with knowledge and skills on stakeholder relationship management. This is a great challenge and gap in the current level of expertise of individuals in organisations having to address this aspect. In turn, communication professionals have some background in building and managing stakeholder relationships, but have little or no knowledge of the requirements and how to address the stakeholder relationship principles of the King IV report.Target group<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short course is specifically targeted at individuals in organisations who has, as part of their mandate, the responsibility of building and maintaining stakeholder relationships or who is tasked with compliance to the stakeholder relationship principles of the King IV.
