How do you ensure that all stakeholders are identified?

One of the hallmarks of systems engineering is the attention paid the whole life cycle of the system under development (requirements right through to retirement) - stakeholders for each stage of the product life cycle are identified, etc.

As a Business Analyst, how can you ensure that a stake holder is not missed? I ask this in relation to an item I saw online recently:
