Option A, 'keep these groups informed'? Sounds like the CFO is trying to avoid an angry mob storming the finance department. Better to keep them in the loop, even if they can't do much.

Haha, imagine if the CFO just straight-up ignored these groups. 'What, you want to know what's going on? Sorry, I'm too busy for that!' That would go over well.

Treat them as key players? That's overkill. They may have high interest, but they don't have the power to really influence things. B is the way to go - minimum effort, maximum efficiency.

I agree, option C is the way to go. You don't want to ignore these groups, but you also don't want to waste too much effort on them. Keeping them satisfied is the sweet spot.

Keep these groups satisfied? That's the key to managing high-interest, low-power stakeholders. You don't want them getting restless and causing trouble.

I believe treating these groups as key players could also be beneficial in the long run.
