What is Communication Methodologies

This chapter deals with the adoption of communication management practices applied by project managers in Colombia. It has become a priority in project management practices in the past decade, but the research field and knowledge domain has seen limited empirical evidence. Therefore, it verifies the influence of the application of these types of practices against performance indicators obtained in projects. To carry out this preliminary study, leaders of companies from different sectors of Bogota in Colombia were interviewed under a mixed-methods approach. It was verified that the practices currently applied have a low adoption rate, but they are influential for achieving success in project management and highlight the importance of these types of techniques for the performance of the planned work. This study aims to generate the option of applying unconventional approaches to manage communication in projects that allow for improving performance rates in companies.
