According to the PMBOK Guide, one of the tools and techniques for managing communications is communication methods1. This includes choosing the appropriate method of communication for the project stakeholders, such as interactive, push, or pull communication. Interactive communication is the most effective way to ensure a common understanding among the stakeholders, as it allows for real-time exchange of information and feedback1. Virtual and face-to-face meetings are examples of interactive communication methods that can help the project manager address the situation of having a geographically dispersed project team. By coordinating these meetings, the project manager can improve the communication among the team members, as well as with other stakeholders, and foster trust, collaboration, and cultural awareness23. References:
