Week 7 Instructor Notes
W7N1: Project Communication Overview
Approximately 70 (and some say up to 90%) of a project manager’s time is spent communicating and over 50% of their time is spent in meetings. Of the time spent communicating, approximately 45% of the time should be spent listening and no more than 30% should be spent talking.
The following are interesting facts, from Dr. Don Wetmore, regarding communication:
· The average person uses 13 different ways to control and manage their time
· The average person gets 1 interruption every 8 minutes or approximately 7 an hour or 50-60 per day
· On an average day, there are 17 million meetings in America
· The average worker sends and receives 190 messages per day
· There will be 2 million marriages in this country this year and 1 million divorces. 95% of divorces are caused by a “lack of communication”.
· The average working person spends less than 2 minutes per day in meaningful communication with their spouse or “significant other”.
· The average working person spends less than 30 seconds a day in meaningful communication with their children.
Communication is important – in both our professional and personal lives!
W7N2 How People Communicate
Project managers need to be able to communicate precise messages, where the receiving party understands the context, motive and message itself. A basic communication model helps in understanding what communication means.
Communication is two-way – we transmit information for the purpose of it being received and understood. Both the sender and receiver are involved in communication! What we transmit can be affected by “noise”, meaning that the receiver of the message may have a distorted message – they may be receiving something different than what we think we sent. That might be caused by the way we are sending or by the way they are listening. To avoid misunderstandings, we need to confirm that our message was understood accurately. Noise can be caused by many factors, including language, culture, or emotion. Noise can block out a message so the information is either not heard at all or is distorted. We need to use feedback to verify that our communications are successful.
There are various strategies for ensuring that messages are understood correctly and different strategies are needed for different types of communication channels. In face-to-face communications we can evaluate tone and voice and use body language in augment our words. While you must be careful to read cues correctly, face-to-face communications generally presents an environment where it is a bit easier to ensure your message is properly received. Consider the following:
· Email communication is 100% words (emoticons are marginally non-verbal communication)
· Telephone communication is 18% words and 82% voice tone
· Face-to-Face communication is 55% body language, 38% voice tone and 7% words
Be certain to think about the communication method we use..
Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen has a major impact on your job effectiveness and on the quality of your relationships with other people.
The way to improve your listening skills is to practice "active listening." This is where you make a conscious effort to hear not only the words that another person is saying but, more importantly, the complete message being communicated.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. INTRODUCTION-
Listening is key to all effective communication, without the
ability to listen effectively messages are easily misunderstood
communication breaks down and the sender of the message
can easily become frustrated or irritated.Listening is so
important that many top employers give regular listening
skills training for their employees. This is not surprising when
you consider that good listening skills can lead to: better
customer satisfaction, greater productivity with fewer
mistakes, increased sharing of information that in turn can
lead to more creative and innovative work .Many successful
leaders and entrepreneurs credit their success to effective
listening skills. Richard Branson frequently quotes listening as
one of the main factors behind the success of Virgin.
3. Effective listening is a skill that underpins all positive human
relationships, spend some time thinking about and
developing your listening skills – they are the building blocks
of success.
Good listening skills also have benefits in our personal lives,
including:A greater number of friends and social networks,
improved self-esteem and confidence, higher grades at school
and in academic work and even better health and general
well-being. Studies have shown that, whereas speaking raises
blood pressure, listening brings it down.
4. Listening is Not the Same as Hearing-
Hearing refers to the sounds that
you hear, whereas listening requires more than that: it
requires focus. Listening means paying attention not only to
the story, but how it is told, the use of language and voice,
and how the other person uses his or her body. In other
words, it means being aware of both verbal and non-verbal
messages. Your ability to listen effectively depends on the
degree to which you perceive and understand these
messages.
5. The 10 Principles of Listening-
1. Stop Talking
Don't talk, listen. When somebody else is talking listen to
what they are saying, do not interrupt, talk over them or
finish their sentences for them. Stop, just listen.
2. Prepare Yourself to Listen
Relax. Focus on the speaker. Put other things out of
mind. The human mind is easily distracted by other thoughts.
6. 3. Put the Speaker at Ease
Help the speaker to feel free to speak. Remember their needs
and concerns. Nod or use other gestures or words to
encourage them to continue.
4. Remove Distractions
Focus on what is being said: don’t doodle, shuffle papers,
look out the window, pick your fingernails or similar. Avoid
unnecessary interruptions.
5. Empathise
Try to understand the other person’s point of view. Look at
issues from their perspective. Let go of preconceived ideas.
7. 6. Be Patient
A pause, even a long pause, does not necessarily mean that
the speaker has finished. Be patient and let the speaker
continue in their own time.
7. Avoid Personal Prejudice
Try to be impartial. Don't become irritated and don't let the
person’s habits or mannerisms distract you from what they
are really saying.
8. Listen to the Tone
Volume and tone both add to what someone is saying. A good
speaker will use both volume and tone to their advantage to
keep an audience attentive
8. 9. Listen for Ideas – Not Just Words
You need to get the whole picture, not just isolated bits and
pieces. Maybe one of the most difficult aspects of listening is
the ability to link together pieces of information to reveal the
ideas of others.
10. Wait and Watch for Non-Verbal Communication
Gestures, facial expressions, and eye-movements can all be
important. We don’t just listen with our ears but also with
our eyes – watch and pick up the additional information being
transmitted via non-verbal communication.
