The stakeholders of the PGNiG Group were identified and updated in 2020 in accordance with the recognised method proposed by G. Johnson and K. Scholes, which helps identify stakeholder groups with similar expectations in terms of their interest and power. Certain modifications were made in 2021, which involved combining stakeholder groups with similar characteristics and power over the organisation. This classification and approach to the PGNiG Group’s stakeholders facilitates stakeholder management and helps better adapt to specific information needs. The result of the work is the stakeholder matrix, which shows not only the power and level of impact of a particular group on the PGNiG Group, but also the type of impact, which may be positive, neutral or negative. The graphic form allows the Group to combine those stakeholder groups which have specific information requirements.

In addition, the relationships and impact of the stakeholders, as well as their expectations and influence on the PGNiG Group were analysed. The communication methods and topics most frequently addressed as part of the interaction were also taken into account. The table below presents the diversity and scale of stakeholders’ interest, which the Group manages.
