Construction teams are usually complex, interdisciplinary and temporary, and, as such, the need for effective communication is crucial. However, published data regarding the manner in which individuals interact within the temporary project team is scarce, with little other than anecdotal evidence available. Recognizing this gap, Communication in Construction Teams provides a comprehensive overview of the literature on interpersonal communication and delivers a critical review of various research methods previously used in and outside the construction management field. Making use of Bales' interaction process analysis (IPA), a tool used successfully in many fields to collect interaction data, the text investigates the link between successful projects and the effectiveness of communication, finding that participants in the construction process exhibit regular patterns of interaction and, most significantly, that there are different patterns of interaction associated with successful and unsuccessful projects. Putting forward a number of practical suggestions to assist all actors involved in construction projects, this insightful publication will be of interest to researchers in the fields of building design and construction management.

This book focuses on the development of communication skills in the context of non-traditional procurement and construction projects. It helps readers to understand the fundamentals of non-traditional procurement, and highlights the inherent communication challenges that arise, as well as how to solve them. The book is divided into four parts, the first of which provides an introduction to communication, discussing the theoretical concepts and contextual nature of communication as well as its benefits. The second part goes into more depth, discussing communication in the context of construction project delivery and non-traditional procurement systems, what these two terms actually mean, and what effective communication looks like in these contexts. Part III offers solutions to the inherent challenges of communication, including the use of information and communications technology, while the book’s fourth and final part explores the future of construction communication. Given the scope of its content, the book represents a valuable asset for researchers, professionals and students in the areas of procurement management and construction management.

Communication within project-based environments presents special challenges. This is especially true within the construction industry, where interaction tends to be characterised by unfamiliar groups of people coming together for short periods before disbanding to work on other endeavours. This book examines communication at a number of levels ranging from interpersonal interactions between project participants to corporate communication between organizations. Several non-typical perspectives on the process of communication are introduced to encourage the reader to think about communication in a more innovative manner. The combination of differing perspectives illustrates the diversity of communication problems facing those working within project-based environments. Practical guidance is provided on possible solutions to communication problems, and a number of examples and case studies are presented.

The following research builds on the existing project management success and critical success factor research by focusing on the social mechanisms used by project managers and project teams to achieve success. Through analysis of previous literature five criteria for success are determined and the critical success factor themes of personnel and communication emerge. Study One uses semi-structured interviews with ten current or former construction project managers to develop a conceptual model of six antecedents to the previously identified critical success factor themes. The unit of measure is the project and not the project manager which allowed for ten interviews to provide insights into twenty projects, the ten most successful and the ten least successful of the interviewees careers. Those interviews provided six constructs or antecedents that lead to effective communication and project personnel. The personnel constructs are; planning, choosing, and retaining. The communication constructs are frequency, understanding, and inclusivity. Study Two uses semi-structured interviews with twenty current or former construction project managers to determine the causal social mechanisms that lead from the antecedents to the critical success factor themes. Through recording, transcribing, coding, and analyzing the interviewee's responses project managers and project teams use similar mechanisms to achieve the critical success factor themes. Knowing those mechanisms will benefit practicing project managers.
