Having this type of communication plan allows to manage stakeholders' expectation efficiently and effectively. If I have invested in a project, then I sure would love a monthly progress report on how is the project coming.

First, the final number of loyal customers depends on the kind of product line evolved in each participating organization. For example it the emerging companies are synergistic in their production line, then the classic scenario 1 +1 = 3 occurs. Therefore the customer loyalty is stronger in the merger than in each individual company. However if the synergy is negative (different production line), the net effect is weaker that in each company.

Taking on the responsibility of being a project manager can be multidimensional and very demanding but rewarding at the end. The roles of a project manager has the total responsibility for the successful planning, execution, monitoring, control and closure of a project. After a project manager take on a tasks that’s has been assigned to him/her from a client, the job is just beginning. They must first understand and have general knowledge about the task that has been put in their hand. The mission starts with assembling an all-star team that will be able to assist you in every aspect as the project go along, next, the project manager and selected team should start piecing together a strategy that correlates with the project schedule to ensure every deadline will be made on or before time, also enforce strong communication throughout the project, and set milestones and follow-up at each interval to assess the progress at every phase until the project is complete.

One of the most important elements of a successful project is the development and implementation of an effective communication plan. Without clear communication, a project can encounter a number of unnecessary obstacles that may prohibit its successful completion. According to Gray and Larson, poor communication is a major contributor to project failure (2014). Therefore, it is important for a project manager to invest time and energy to develop a well thought out communication plan that intends to communication the right message, to the right people, at the right time. The following will provide a comparison of existing project communication plans (PCP), noting their similarities and differences, as well as details on the importance and benefits of establishing an internal communication plan to promote project success.
Communication plays a critical role on making sure the correct people will receive the information, what information will be communicated, how it will be communicated, how often, and who will be responsible for delivering the message during a project. All communication plans will be according to the needs of the project. Establishing a successful communication plan is one of the most important factors contributing to a successful project (CA.gov, 2007).

A communication plan describes the objectives a company will accomplish in terms of sharing information inside and outside the organization. This communication plan derives from the company’s business plan and is aligned with the overall objectives of the organization. The first and most important task to be able to design an effective communication plan, is for the responsible team to evaluate the company’s goals and objectives for the period encompassing the plan and be able to correlate the plan with the overall business plan. Throughout this essay, I will use the lecture from Rodrigo Garcia-Nieto, UPS Americas, on The Importance of the Communication Function in the Multinational Firm to illustrate examples of an effective communication plan.
