>> Please join me in congratulating ATTTW member Ben Lauren on the publication of his new book Communicating Project Management: A Participatory Rhetoric for Development Teams which was just released this past week.  Ben’s book is part of the ATTW Series in Technical and Professional Communication published by Routledge.  It’s available from Routledge at https://www.routledge.com/Communicating-Project-Management-A-Participatory-Rhetoric-for-Development/Lauren/p/book/9781138046429 as well as Amazon.

>> Ben’s book provides TPC students and practitioners with a deep dive into the strategies and practices which working professionals use to cultivate and maintain lines of communication between team members regardless of whether they are using LEAN, Agile, Six Sigma, or some other project management model. Ben’s book is a useful antidote to those all-too-common situations where TPC professionals and/or students are put into group development teams and told to collaborate without any real guidance.  Through his empirical studies of teams in workplace environments, Lauren helps us under the skills and strategies needed to create functional teams. More importantly, by specifically focusing on participation, Lauren uncouples the role of the project manager from the traditional focus on forcing “collaboration” in teams and, instead, positions the work of development team members as a shared activity.
