Communication Models
Effective communication is very crucial in project management. In an organization,
different forms of communication are relayed. The exchange of information can vary
from one project to the other as well as with different stages of the project. Moreover,
there are also different elements that comprise good communication. These include the
sender, receiver, message, medium, feedback and even noise. It is important to define
medium and noise as they can also affect the way the message is delivered. The former
is defined as the technology used to deliver the message while the latter involves
barriers or interference for good communication. So you see, even good communication
has restrictions in the form of the type of medium used to deliver the message and the
presence of noise.

Communications model is used in facilitating communication within the organization. By


definition, it is a description or schematic that is used represent the how the
communication process is performed for a particular project.

It follows a series of steps in order to deliver the message effectively. The message
needs to be encoded by the sender and should be transmitted using a medium or
communication channel to reach the recipient. The recipient will then acknowledge the
information and decoded it to send the appropriate feedback to the sender.

This project management term is defined in the 5th edition of the PMBOK.
