Answer options

• C. Hold Scrum meetings more frequently to ensure stakeholders are well informed.
• D. Instruct the team to focus on their own assignments rather than the work of others.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because using an information radiator improves transparency, allowing stakeholders to see real-time updates on work status.
