Explicit awareness of personal communication competence in project
management communication unfolds opportunities to influence key project
stakeholders at any given level. Clear and focused personal
communication exceeds any IT system and therefore it pays off to invest
in good project communication. However, from a project investment
perspective companies are focused on IT, performance measurement;
project monitoring, project development and project management systems
with the purpose of meeting deadlines for delivery and gaining profit.
But when deadlines and expectations are not met, when customers are not
satisfied, it is a result of poor human communication - not because
Excel or any other IT system fails in calculating a given situation.The
importance of considering project communication strategically is a well
established requirement within project management. Ongoing stakeholder
analysis enables the project manager to continuously monitor and
consider the ‘who’, ‘what’, ‘when’, ‘why’ and to some extent the ‘how’
of communication of information to stakeholders. What still remains to
be explored is the ‘how’ of personal communication competence.
