I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
As we all know in project management communication is key. In this case study at the initials there was poor communication, assumptions and lack understanding between the team members.
But along the line with proper communication, research and seeking for help when needed they fixed the problem and achieved their goal.
The main issue among the three team members was poor communication. They misunderstood each other’s actions, didn’t give proper updates, and allowed emotions and assumptions to affect teamwork.
In project management, effective communication and active listening are essential. Team members should listen to each other’s perspectives and stay open-minded.
They eventually fixed the problem by doing proper research, realigning as a team, and involving experts who understood the local community’s norms and values. This helped them achieve the project’s goal successfully.
