what is the best approach for a team to keep the stake stakeholder continuously update on the work status

Answer:
I use a public shared folder for documents that all team members need access to. I can edit documents in the shared folder without having to change the link to each file each time. I use DropBox and there are many similar cloud Apps.
I also text to a group text MMS to encourage immediate attention. Apple and Android don’t play well together, especially for adding members. One tip is to add the new member to your Contacts list first; that seems to make it easier to add them. Apple won’t add a member to a list that has even just one Android user in it. Grr.
I also use Email Groups to keep members in touch. All of these are asynchronous channels so both senders and receivers can check them when they want to.
The main synchronous channels are phone calls and video calling (Facetime, Zoom, What’sApp, etc.) These depend on the receivers being “there” and able to talk at the same time. AND you have more certainty that they “heard” your message. Though even then, they may not have.
Finally, it’s critical to have a common conception of the team’s “charter.” Clarity of purpose, vision, s, strategies, and short-term goals. See my website for more:
