Summary/Abstract: Though construction projects undertaken in developing countries are aimed at socio-economic growth, the benefits cannot be realized without carefully considering project stakeholders management for successful delivery. This study identified and evaluated Critical Success Factors CSFs as part of a broader study aimed at “Developing Sustainable Stakeholder Management Framework for Developing Countries”. An exploratory, qualitative survey was adopted. A questionnaire survey was used to validate 35 CSFs identified from the literature reviewed and Relative Importance Index for analysis. Early stakeholders’ identification; managing culture and political environment; communication; project managers’ competence; formal stakeholder management process was highly ranked. Five groups were also confirmed. The study contributes to the body of knowledge by validating CFSs for the Ghanaian construction industry.
