Migration Planning / Stakeholder Comms Planner
§5What this is for: Plan stakeholder communication strategies for PQC migration programs.
What a good answer looks like: Each audience gets the one thing they need to decide. If two audiences get the same message, one of them is being ignored.
Worked example: Put the board in 'Manage closely' with a quarterly cadence and a dashboard status report, write the Board / C-Suite message, then give development teams their own message on a weekly cadence.

For your role
- Executive / Business Leader
- Write the Board / C-Suite message and set the reporting frequency and status-report format: the export is the communication plan that keeps the board informed without a second briefing.
- GRC / Risk & Compliance
- List the stakeholders with their power and interest, set the engagement strategy per group and the escalation triggers and path: the plan documents who is told what, when, which an audit of programme governance expects.
