Communication Methods

The approaches for sharing information: interactive, push, and pull.

Definition

Interactive (meetings, calls) is real-time and multidirectional; push (emails, memos) sends to specific recipients without confirming understanding; pull (intranets, knowledge bases) is for large audiences who access at their discretion.

Example

Project wiki for 500 users is pull; a status email to the sponsor is push.

Exam tip

Use interactive for resolving misunderstandings; pull for large audiences.
