MANAGEMENT
90%
of their time Project Managers communicate
Communication is the process by which information is
exchanged and understood by two or more people,
usually with the intent to motivate or influence
behavior.
Project Communications Management provides the critical links
between people, ideas, and information that are necessary for
project success

The number of communication channels in a project
is equal to: N (N-1)/2

COMMUNUCATIONS MODEL

Source
◦ the originator of the communication, e.g., either the
organization, supervisors, subordinates, peers, client, or
associates

Encoder
◦ the source's ideas are translated into a systematic set of
symbols to provide the structure in which ideas, purposes,
intentions, etc. can be expressed as an understandable
message.

Message
◦ the actual physical product of the source encoder, or the
physical thought, idea, etc. presented to the receiver from the
sender in a code known by both.
.
COMMUNUCATIONS MODEL

Channel
◦ the medium used to carry the message from the source
to the receiver. For example, a memo or perhaps a
verbal communication.

Receiver
◦ the recipient of the message. No communication occurs
until the recipient accepts and makes the meaning
common between the receiver and the sender.

Decoder
◦ similar to encoder, but from the receiver's perspective
.
COMMUNUCATIONS MODEL


Everyone involved in the project must be
prepared to send and receive
communications, and must understand how
these communications affect the project as a
whole.
Project Communications Management
includes the processes required to ensure
timely and appropriate generation, collection,
dissemination, storage, and disposition of
project information.
.
COMMUNUCATIONS PLANNING

Communications planning involves determines the
information needs of the stakeholders:
◦ Who need what information
◦ When they will need it
◦ How it will be given to them, and by whom
.

conversations)
◦ Vertical (up and down the organization) and horizontal
(with peers)
