SSUD12-116: Project Communications Management

Description

Strategic decision-making in a projectised organisation is typically driven by an analysis of stakeholder objectives, open communication and risk appetite. This subject explores how communications are managed from the initiation phase of a project or program until its closure phase. Topics covered include team meetings, virtual and colocated teams, cultural awareness, emotional intelligence, conflict communication, and Project Management Information Systems (PMIS). Successful outcomes can occur when trust between the project participants is realised.
