What is the communication plan template?
One of the worst-case scenarios as a project manager is getting to the end of a project, looking for a final sign-off from a stakeholder, and then being told that the stakeholder isn’t aware of what’s going on and wants things changed. But you can avoid this if you implement a communication plan from the beginning of the project. A communication plan is a tool project managers use to ensure things are organized and come together for a project.
