Project management continues to grow and transcend industry and national barriers. A high level of communication competence is required for the successful functioning of the often multi-disciplinary and multicultural project teams involved in project delivery to achieve the desired project objectives. Project managers, as the key channels of communication in the project environment, are faced with international and domestic imperatives to be competent in intercultural communication for successful operation in the multicultural project environment. Many project managers are challenged by the need for effective communication during project delivery in multicultural environments. This book offers the Australian project manager´s perspective on the subject.
