Communication in Project Management
Hence, employing effective communication methods are necessary to ensure project success
Effective Communication
The project manager decides, based on communication requirements, what, how, and when communication methods are to be used in the project. This process requires discussion and dialogue with the project team to determine the most appropriate way to update and communicate project information, and to respond to requests from various stakeholders for that information.

Interactive Communication
An interactive communication is required when the communication is likely to be misinterpreted. Every stakeholder can respond to each other in real time
Push Communication
This type of communication is used from sender to receiver. It is preferable when the sender sends information and do not want an immediate response from receiver or when the information do not need immediate response because is not pressing or as important. Examples of Push Communication are : emails, letter, reports or faxes. It is not a face-to-face communication but always an information through a written medium.
