B05 - Conduct a focused communication

This management activity belongs to the Monthly Initiation group. This group of activities are done in the beginning of each month to prepare us for a new monthly cycle.

Send a message to everyone and tell them about the expected achievements in the upcoming month and the risks involved. It’s important to let everyone know their role in the overall achievements of the project.

Purpose

The main goal is to make sure that people involved in the project remain aligned with the overall goals and do not limit their contributions to isolated specialist activities.

Common pitfalls

Keep the message short and clear, and focus on expected achievements rather than planned tasks.
