Well, first of all, let me say that "good" or "bad" are subjective matters. Escalations are positivie when stakeholders understand that the escalation is to find help to failitate their work in the project. That is the key, in my personal opion, Each time I am assigned to a new initiative this is one of the first things I put clear with all involved people. Escalation is to find help.Not for me or the project. For people to facilitate their work in the project.

Escalations are the ace card for when needed. Limited, but available if the situation warrants.

You are welcome. Just to add some comment it is a hard work (at least in my personal experience) to work with stakeholders to help them to understand when I am escaling is to find help for them.

As per management, you should first collect and gather all data related to issue, and try make face-face meeting to solve problem. If it isn't passed, you can escalate to top management. So, it's better solve problem or conflict by face-face meeting by inter personnel skills.

If the stakeholder has not responded despite attempts to contact them then good action was taken because you are working in favor of your project. While you have nothing against the stakeholder, s/he has not done their responsibility towards the project. If they are too busy to even respond, then you know that you need someone can be more engaged. Saving Changes...
