Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) — Question 326

How can a project manager maintain the engagement of stakeholders in a project with a high degree of change?

Answer options

• A. Monitor project stakeholder relationships using engaging strategies and plans
• B. Send all project documents to stakeholders each time they are modified
• C. Schedule monthly meetings with the stakeholders, including team members
• D. Engage only with the project sponsors

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because actively monitoring stakeholder relationships and employing engaging strategies ensures that stakeholders remain informed and involved despite changes. Option B is ineffective as flooding stakeholders with documents can overwhelm them and does not promote meaningful engagement. Option C, while useful, may not be frequent enough to address rapid changes, and option D limits engagement to a select few, neglecting the broader stakeholder group that may also need involvement.
