Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 83

You are the program manager for the BHN Program. Your program has 122 stakeholders that you'll need to plan to communicate with. Considering the size of the program how many communication channels do you have in this program?

Answer options

• A. 244
• B. 122
• C. 14,884
• D. 7,381

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D (7,381) because the formula for calculating the number of communication channels in a project is n(n-1)/2, where n is the number of stakeholders. In this case, it would be 122(121)/2 = 7,381. Options A, B, and C represent incorrect calculations of communication channels.
