Organizing project-based group communication events: A macro perspective

Communication, often conducted in the form of meeting, is critical to the success of collaboration in project-based and human-intensive business activities. This paper reviews current literature in the areas of group and organizational communication and argues the need of (1) a holistic perspective in planning and organizing project-based group communications, (2) establishing and sustaining a continuous venue for communication, and (3) taking advantage of meetings and introducing the meeting-flow (MF) concept to facilitate the macro-level planning of communication and its venue.
