Abstrakt:

Collaboration is the central element for successful projects and, indeed, successfulcompanies. Today, two main approaches to organizing collaboration in projects exist: thestructural and the procedural. While the structural approach increases the probability that peoplewill communicate, e.g. by providing collaboration infrastructure, it does not at all ensurethat people really do communicate and cooperate in a sensible way. Following the proceduralapproach, the collaboration between people is planned, organized and managed by directlyaddressing the question who needs to collaborate with whom, to produce which result, andwhen. To organize the procedural approach, this article discusses two components: a methodologycalled Business Communication Engineering to organize projects and processes aroundinformation flows, and a graphically advanced tool that allows collaboration to be drawn ina people-communication matrix called the Communigram. Through modern IT, the drawncollaboration comes to life, even in large projects
