Communication is vital to a group's success in terms of accomplishing goals and meeting deadlines, if there is a lack of communication among group members then the project will fail. The communication skills of my group members and I have played, not only a positive role, but also an important role in our group project thus far. Our group has been meeting our goals and has accomplished a great deal because of how well we communicate with each other and with others. With so many deadlines for our milestones and for our action plan its has been imperative that our group maintain good oral communication among each other because without that communication everyone in the group would be lost on what would need to be accomplished in order for our project to keep progressing. Our group has also held a steady stream of written communication through e-mail in order to arrange meeting times to complete tasks for our project. That written communication has become a very positive reinforcement in the sense that e-mailing each other has kept us up to date, as a group, with what each member has been doing outside of our discussion classes.
