PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 195

A large project team is assigned to a complex technical project with many interdependent epics. The team starts to experience problems in the second sprint as the technical leads are independently unable to determine the needed solutions.

What should the project lead do to help the team?

Answer options

• A. Coordinate a collaboration session so all the team members are involved in the solution process.
• B. Plan a minimum viable product (MVP) in collaboration with the product owner to reduce technical complexity and move issues to the next release.
• C. Provide training for all team members to enable higher technical skills and the ability to resolve complex issues.
• D. Hire external consultants to advise on solution options and train team members in any technical gaps.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because coordinating a collaboration session allows the entire team to engage in problem-solving together, leveraging their collective knowledge. Options B, C, and D might provide temporary relief or skill enhancement, but they do not directly address the immediate need for collaborative solution finding among the existing team members.
