How you actually share the information with your
stakeholders. It is worth involving stakeholders to keep
them engaged with the project.
Interactive Communication
Is reciprocal and can involve two or
many people. One person provides
information; others receive it and then
respond to the information. Examples:
conversations, meetings, instant
messaging and conference calls.
Push Communication
Involves a one-way stream of information.
The sender provides the information to the
people who need it but does not expect
feedback. Examples: Status Reports,
e-mailed updates, company memos.
Pull Communication
The PM places the information in a central
location. The recipients are responsible for
retrieving or "pulling" the information from that
location. It is used to distribute large documents
or to send information to many people.
Meetings
Are important for two reasons: To bring the team together and
determine how information will be communicated on the project.
More significantly, thinking ahead about when, how and how often
meetings will be used on the project.
