C04 - Conduct a focused communication

This management activity belongs to the Weekly Management group, which is a group of activities done at the beginning of each week.

Send a short message to everyone involved in the project, and brief them on what’s going to be done in the upcoming week, and on the risks that may affect it, as well as the plans to respond to those risks.

Purpose
