CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 259

A sponsor is working on a document that states the objectives and success criteria of the project, as well as the person to be appointed as project manager. Which of the following should the newly appointed project manager do next?

Answer options

• A. Conduct a risk assessment.
• B. Create a project scope document.
• C. Identify stakeholders.
• D. Perform a lessons learned.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct action for the new project manager is to identify stakeholders, as understanding who is involved and affected by the project is crucial for its success. Conducting a risk assessment and creating a project scope document are important tasks but come after stakeholder identification. Performing a lessons learned review is typically done at the end of a project, not at the beginning.
