Final answer:

The stakeholder (network effectiveness) approach issue of seeking input from stakeholders without granting them influence is represented by the situation in which stakeholders are contacted for feedback but do not view themselves as stakeholders and are not interested or committed to participating.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to the question is b) Seeking input from stakeholders without granting them influence. This represents an example of the issues with the stakeholder (network effectiveness) approach, specifically the situation where stakeholder input is sought but not given any influence in decision-making. In the mini-case study provided, the students contacted key stakeholders for feedback on a substance abuse prevention program, but these stakeholders did not view themselves as stakeholders and were not interested or committed to participating, resulting in inadequate feedback.
