CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 183

Because milestones were not being met, a project manager decided to add more developers to the crucial tasks to help expedite the completion of deliverables. However, the developers’ performance did not improve. Which of the following team life cycles should the project manager move to next?

Answer options

• A. Forming
• B. Norming
• C. Storming
• D. Adjourning

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Storming, as this phase involves addressing conflicts and challenges that arise when team dynamics are tested. Adding more developers can lead to confusion and conflict, which is characteristic of the Storming phase. The other options, such as Forming and Norming, represent earlier or more harmonious stages of team development that do not address the issues at hand.
