Recently, I lost my voice for a few days. It made me realize how important it is to have effective, efficient, and effortless communication throughout a project. Because I couldn’t talk to my team and instead needed to write out my ideas, communicating what was on my mind felt a little cumbersome. Thankfully, we still had a good communication plan in place that dictated regular meetings for discussing project changes, so we weren’t hindered by my inability to hold a conversation. When I finally got my voice back a few days later, order was restored and we resumed our full speed ahead of pace without me scrambling for a whiteboard every five minutes.
