An organization’s ability to meet project timelines, budgets and especially goals significantly impacts its ability to survive—and even thrive. As they address the urgent need to improve project success rates, organizations are faced with a complex and risky environment.

This includes:

  • A “do more with less” economic climate
  • Expanding global priorities
  • Necessity to enable innovation

The study also revealed that the most crucial success factor in project management is effective communications to all stakeholders—a critical core competency to all organizations. In a complex and competitive business climate, organizations cannot afford to overlook this key element of project success and long-term profitability.

It’s Clear That We Should Be Doing A Much Better Job
Communicating With All Project Stakeholders.

Project communications involves planning and delivering information to all project stakeholders.

This includes:

  • Actions needed to best handle timely and appropriate gathering, reproduction, distribution, storage, administration, and control of project content.
  • Critical connections between people, thoughts, and content required for success.

The underlying need and core capability required for a well lubricated and functioning project team is effective and efficient communications among team members, and all project stakeholders.

A critical risk to project management is to assume that all communication are functioning properly just because people are talking to one another. Delivering a PMmessage doesn’t make sure that it’s received.

  1. The PM owns building, maintaining & handling critical project connections.
  2. The responsibility for building and maintaining real communication links falls on the PM.
  3. The PM should focus on key project communications areas to make sure to meet organizational goals..

Questions which may be discussed during the live #PMCHAT:

  • Successful communication of information.
  • Efficient movement of communications.
  • Adequate communications across boundaries.
  • Proper use of technology.
  • Application of a virtual office.
  • Carry out effective meetings.
