What do you consider to be the most essential aspect of project success? The statement of work? Well-documented requirements? An accurate project schedule? A well-managed budget? While these are all critical pieces to the successful project management puzzle, there is one underlying element to each. What is it? Communication. Every one of these is based on good communication.
