PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) — Question 176

Some issues and unexpected results were found after completing the first phase of a project. The project team is planning the next phase and team members want to avoid the previous issues.

What should the risk manager do to avoid the previous issues?

Answer options

• A. Document the issues in the lessons learned.
• B. Use the information for a risk workshop.
• C. Create an issue log to share with the team.
• D. Improve monitoring and controlling of activities.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because documenting the issues in the lessons learned helps the team to reflect on past mistakes and prevents them from happening again. Options B and C focus on using or sharing information but do not ensure that lessons are formally recorded for future reference. Option D, while beneficial for ongoing projects, does not specifically address the need to learn from past issues.
