Opis

Communicating Project Management argues that project management has become participatory and is a form of technical communication, made up of complex communication practices, processes and strategies solidly grounded in rhetorical concepts. Using case studies from a variety of companies and experiences, the book investigates how teams that develop digital tools and information communicate as they participate in project management activities. These case studies provide examples of how the field of project management can turn its attention to architecting inclusive communication experiences around projects in the workplace. Communicating Project Management shows readers how teams are working together to manage projects, and looks at how those teams are learning and evolving by analysing where they succeed and fail. It is crucial reading for professionals working in technical and professional communication and project management.
