18 December, 2015 - 11:44

Electronic mail (e-mail) is widely used to coordinate projects and to communicate between team members. It has several valuable characteristics for project management:

  • Copies can be sent to a list of team members.
  • A preconference-call e-mail can list the agenda items of the conference call.
  • A postconference e-mail can summarize the results of the discussion on each topic.
  • Messages can be saved to document the process in case of a misunderstanding or miscommunication.
  • Files can be attached and distributed.
