What PMGT5872 is aboutPMGT5872 讲什么
PMGT5872 People and Communications is a 6-credit-point postgraduate unit in the University of Sydney's Faculty of Engineering (School of Project Management). It treats communication as a core project-management skill — the unit notes project managers spend roughly 90% of their time communicating. The semester moves from the foundations of project communication and reflective practice (Week 1) through communication models, barriers and DISC styles (Week 2), organisational culture and Hofstede's dimensions (Week 3), interpersonal communication and feedback (Week 4), multiple intelligences, emotional intelligence and the Johari window (Week 5), stress, conflict management and interest-based negotiation (Week 6), organisational communication and structures (Week 7), generational diversity (Week 8), leadership communication, delegation and motivation (Week 9), into teams-versus-groups with Belbin roles and team development (Week 10) and high-performing and virtual teams (Week 11), before group presentations in Weeks 12–13. It is delivered through interactive workshops built on flipped and blended learning — pre-workshop mini-lectures and readings, then hands-on case-study and team activities — with no traditional lectures and an 85% attendance requirement. The unit is assessed entirely through coursework with no final exam.
PMGT5872《People and Communications》是悉尼大学工程学院(项目管理学院)的 6 学分研究生课程。它把沟通视为项目管理的核心能力——课程指出项目经理约 90% 的时间都在沟通。整个学期从项目沟通基础与反思实践(第 1 周)出发,经过沟通模型、沟通障碍与 DISC 风格(第 2 周)、组织文化与 Hofstede 维度(第 3 周)、人际沟通与反馈(第 4 周)、多元智能、情商与乔哈里窗(第 5 周)、压力、冲突管理与利益导向谈判(第 6 周)、组织沟通与组织结构(第 7 周)、代际多样性(第 8 周)、领导力沟通、授权与激励(第 9 周),进入团队与群体之别、Belbin 角色与团队发展(第 10 周)以及高绩效与虚拟团队(第 11 周),最后在第 12–13 周进行小组展示。课程以翻转式与混合式学习为基础,通过互动工作坊授课——课前先看 mini-lecture 与阅读材料,课上再做案例与团队活动——没有传统讲座,并要求至少 85% 出勤。课程全程由平时作业评估,没有期末考试。

Key assessment-style questions in PMGT5872PMGT5872 核心考核风格题
A worked PMGT5872 problemPMGT5872 例题
Worked example — working a conflict scenario toward an interest-based, win-win outcome示范题——把一个冲突情境推向利益导向的双赢结果
You manage a large technical project. You delegated key technical decisions to a younger but capable team member, and she reports that two seasoned engineers are ignoring her direction, insisting they 'know better.' Tension is rising. Using the unit's frameworks, how do you analyse and resolve this?
你管理一个大型技术项目。你把关键技术决策授权给了一位年轻但有能力的团队成员,她反映两位资深工程师无视她的指挥,坚称自己「更懂」。气氛日趋紧张。请用本课的框架分析并化解这个问题。
1) Diagnose the conflict. This is partly a structural/relationship conflict (delegated authority not matched by perceived status) layered with conflict hooks — the seasoned engineers' identity ('I'm the expert') is snagged, and 'a junior directing me' is a hot button. 2) Locate it on the conflict continuum (discomfort → incidents → misunderstanding → tension → crisis): it's at 'tension', so act before it escalates to crisis. 3) Choose a conflict-resolution mode. Avoid/Force would damage the relationship and undercut your delegate; aim for Collaborate/Problem-solve. 4) Negotiate around interests, not positions. The stated positions ('she shouldn't lead' vs 'follow my direction') hide interests: the engineers want their expertise respected and influence retained; she wants her delegated authority upheld; you want delivery and a functioning team. 5) Design a win-win. Reaffirm her decision rights publicly, but build in a structured channel for the seniors' technical input (e.g. a short design-review where they advise and she decides) — meeting their interest in being heard without removing her authority. 6) Use interpersonal skills: meet each party, listen with open-ended questions, give feedback on the behaviour not the person, and self-regulate your own hot buttons (Johari/EQ). 7) Capture it for your reflective journal — what worked, what you'd change — feeding the Individual Reflective assessment.
1)诊断冲突。这部分是结构/关系冲突(授权与被感知的地位不匹配),叠加了「冲突钩子」——资深工程师「我才是专家」的身份被触动,而「让一个资历浅的人指挥我」是「热按钮」。2)在冲突连续谱上定位(不适 → 摩擦 → 误解 → 紧张 → 危机):目前处于「紧张」,要在升级为危机前出手。3)选择冲突化解模式。回避/强制会损害关系并架空你的被授权人;应采用协作/共同解决问题。4)围绕利益而非立场谈判。表面立场(「她不该领导」对「按我的来」)背后是利益:工程师希望专业受到尊重、保留影响力;她希望被授予的权力得到维护;你希望项目交付且团队正常运转。5)设计双赢。公开重申她的决策权,同时为资深工程师的技术意见建立一个结构化通道(如一次简短的设计评审,他们提建议、她做决定)——既满足他们「被听见」的利益,又不剥夺她的权力。6)运用人际技巧:分别与各方沟通,用开放式问题倾听,对事不对人地反馈,并管理好自己的「热按钮」(乔哈里窗/情商)。7)把整个过程记入反思日志——哪些有效、哪些会调整——为个人反思作业积累素材。
