PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 24

Stakeholders have conflicting requirements, and the product owner is struggling to decide which user stories to write.
What should the product owner do?

Answer options

• A. Ask the agile practitioner to help write the user stories
• B. Ask the agile team to facilitate a story-writing workshop
• C. Ask subject matter experts (SMEs) to help write the user stories
• D. Ask the agile practitioner to facilitate a story-writing workshop

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because having the agile practitioner facilitate a story-writing workshop can help align the conflicting requirements through collaboration and discussion. Options A and C focus on individual assistance, which may not adequately address the broader stakeholder conflicts. Option B, while involving the agile team, lacks the specific guidance that the agile practitioner can provide in leading the workshop effectively.
