For the project selected in Unit I, create a simple communication management plan. (See project selection below). Your plan should follow the process for planning communication management, as referred to in Figure 3.1 and 3.3 of the textbook, and in the section beginning with Communication and the Project Plan (page 51 to 57) in the eBook, Project Management: A Common-Sense Guide to the PMBOK Program, Part Two – Plan and Execution. Consider the following questions:
Finally, in addition to writing out your strategies and responses to the questions, summarize the who, what, when, where, how, and why into a quick reference table. For example, consider the building the library scenario in the earlier unit. The "who" would be the stakeholders such as members of the community, future patrons of the library to name just a couple. The "what" would include information regarding the progress of the construction, key milestones, and perhaps some announcements regarding the planned scope of the completed library (such as types of media available for checkout, services to be offered, etc.). Such a table is often used as a succinct at-a-glance form of the communications plan.
As a guide to depth, your Communication Management Plan should be a minimum of two pages in length. You may either create your table in Word and include it at the end of the document, or submit it as a separate Excel file.
