PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 237

An executive notices a kanban board in a highly visible location and expresses concerns to the project manager that too many people will see it. What should the project manager do?

Answer options

• A. Cover up the kanban board every time the project team is not actively updating it.
• B. Demonstrate how the kanban board is necessary for assigning proper ownership for the work that has been done.
• C. Explain that the kanban board enables the team to complete the work and increases transparency on work that is not done.
• D. Remove the kanban board immediately and place it in a location where it is not visible.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Option C is correct because it highlights the benefits of the kanban board in aiding the team’s work completion and promoting transparency. Option A is impractical, as it would defeat the purpose of visibility. Option B, while valid, does not address the transparency aspect, and Option D would eliminate the benefits of using the kanban board altogether.
