Series Summary
We all know that it is in the interest of a construction manager to maintain and build good working relationships. A good manager has to do this with all persons who have an interest in his project (stakeholders). From clients to site labourers, wining the respect, cooperation and the willingness to go the extra mile is essential.
It has to be recognised that at every professional level, there is a unique language and set of values. A good site manager should be the central hub of all site communication and have fluent communication skills, again at every professional level. A good site manager should also be able to instruct, process, record, give guidance, clarify and resolve differences of opinions using established site communication processes and procedures.
