Sažetak
Communication is an essential process in the world of project management. It is difficult to master, but essential to make a good effort in achieving. Many times on troubled projects, project team members feel that if the communication had been better, the project would have run smoother. Therefore, communication is often listed as one of the most needed areas for improvement. To ensure the success of a project much information, including expectations, goals, needs, resources, status reports, budgets and purchase requests, needs to be communicated on a regular basis to all major stakeholders. Project communication can often be more difficult due to challenges unique to project management. Many projects are short-term, and therefore project communication is temporary. This means that communications systems need to be established quickly in shorter periods of time. Another challenge is that projects often include cross-functional or inter-organizational teams. Project teams are not normally natural teams and sometimes they are virtual teams. Unique delivery methods and communication devices need to be utilized to overcome this challenge. Project communications management plays the key role in keeping all members of the project on the same page. It includes the processes required to ensure timely and appropriate generation, collection, distribution, storage, retrieval, and ultimate disposition of project information. There are several key components in project communication management which should be considered.
