In the organization there have been stages in a project, I had to present to the Stakeholders the proceeds of the project and adopt a Tailored type of Communication to present the proceeds of the project to the stakeholders.
In communicating with stakeholders, it’s important that you have clear written communication and points and datas that you would want to discuss/analyze. This not only brings to mind what needs to be discussed but keeps you on point. You get to know where in the project you are, if you’re at the centre of the desired outcome of the clients, what methodology to adopt or discard. Reporting is very important and working on realistic time schedule. Let your financial offer correspond to the value you’re offering and what they expect. Make sure you communicate the challenges encountered no matter how bad they are with possible analysed solutions which you also make open for deliberations. Never bring this bad news in a forum or meeting where all the stakeholders are present. Discuss individually with the stakeholders before any board meeting that way there won’t be surprises and you can have smooth deliberation.

Effective communication is an essential part of our business. As a market research organisation, we do a lot of interface with stakeholders – clients, sponsors, team members and field operators. For every project, there is always a project briefing with the client to understand the project needs, this is later communicated to the sponsor with the estimated budget for the project. Finally, the project execution team is briefed on the methodology, timeline, and other deliverables and there is a constant follow up to ensure compliance with guidelines.
Effective Communication ensures seamless flow of project because parties understand their role and deliveres optimally.
When communicating with stakeholders, it is important to speak the language they understand. You cannot communicate with all stakeholders the same way. As a project manager, you need to find out what catches and holds the stake holder’s attention and communicate with him with that in mind.
