Project management is regarded as multifaceted activities where project manager needs to be an effective
communicator and leader for motivating and allocating tasks to the team and manage the complex relationships
with a diverse group of people such as stakeholders, clients, and sponsor. The success of the project not only
deals with the technical project management competencies for project conceptualization, execution, and
delivery but also the ability to lead the team effectively and simultaneously managing diverse stakeholder and
sponsor relations through effective communication. Lack of communication among team members can lead to
project chaos as it promotes redundancy in task accomplishment and reporting and also managing the client
relationship for effective delivery, feedback and client satisfaction with the project deliverables. Similarly, lack
of leadership can have a significant impact on building an effective team, conflict resolution, negation process
of project resources and the long-term sustainability of the project. Most project success and failure can,
therefore, be attributed to the aspects of both communication and leadership of project manager. In this
individual paper, students are required to discuss the inherent relationships between communication and
leadership and their impact on project management.
