Communicating Effectively with Facts and Data
About the Webinar
Perhaps the most important characteristic of any successful project manager is his ability to
communicate effectively – to persuade others. Effective communication requires a clear and
logical message that is believable and easy for the recipient to follow. Communicating effectively
with facts and data strengthens a project manager’s position, takes the emotion out of decision
making, and helps move a project forward quickly and efficiently. This presentation will give the
project manager some hints and suggestions on utilizing graphs, charts, and tables to aid in
effective communication to various project stakeholders.
