PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 159

Agile team A struggles to deliver committed stories due to technical dependencies with team B, which continuously fails to meet its delivery commitments.
What should the agile team lead do?

Answer options

• A. Create a new team to deliver the dependencies, and bring team B under performance management
• B. Conduct a vision-sharing session with the teams to communicate the project's overall goals
• C. Swap team members from both teams so that deliveries are better supported
• D. Discuss negotiating the delivery timelines with team A

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct response is B because conducting a vision-sharing session helps align both teams towards common project objectives, which can improve collaboration and reduce dependency issues. Options A and C may not address the root cause of the problem, while D suggests a passive approach that could lead to ongoing delays.
