Communication Plan
Stakeholders should get sufficient information, and communication plans offer a policy-driven approach towards the same. The communication plan below, therefore, offers a formal definition of stakeholders who should get particular information, time for delivering the information, and the communication channels to use in delivering the information. It outlines strategies to be used and applicable communication channels. Also, it describes how to address the strategic goals of the task through the communication plan as well as managerial or leadership skills to draw upon in the implementation of the plan.
Communication Strategies
The communication plan calls for the use of different communication strategies due to various reasons. First, visual aids are one of the key strategies in disseminating the action plan to multiple stakeholders. The use of items like graphs, videos, among others alongside spoken information, helps in preventing the communication of the same things to stakeholders repeatedly. Open meetings are also a key strategy that provides a chance for the stakeholders to open up and air out their views and take note of the opinions of other stakeholders. This strategy helps in gauging their take on the matter. Besides, emails would also apply as part of the strategy for passing official information (Szeberenyi, 2015). This is important as one can target specific stakeholders who need to get specific information.
Formal and Informal Communication Channels
Both the formal and informal communication channels apply in the implementation of the plan.
