Communications management is one of the essential functions that can dramatically affect the outcome of a project. Project managers must create and effectively use a communications plan that performs two principal functions: collect the right data and disseminate appropriate information in a timely manner. To do this effectively, project teams must identify the appropriate audiences, develop appropriate communications media, establish a communications schedule, and manage the flow of information in and out of the project team. You learn the tools and techniques that project teams can use to build an effective communications plan.
