# communication principles — Project Manager

For a Project Manager, 'Communication Principles' isn’t about *if* you communicate, but *how*. It means consistently applying active listening – truly understanding stakeholder needs beyond stated requirements – during kickoff meetings, daily stand-ups, and one-on-ones. Establishing rapport builds trust with your team and clients; it's the difference between a hesitant 'yes' and enthusiastic collaboration. Adjusting register is crucial: you’ll explain technical risks to executives differently than you detail tasks to developers. Respecting intervention means creating space for all voices, even dissenting ones, fostering psychological safety so issues surface early.
