Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1210
A project team is working on an agile software development project. The project manager is concerned that the virtual team may not be as effective as a colocated team at headquarters.
Which two actions should the project manager leverage to ensure the team is meeting performance expectations? (Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. Require a monthly individual status report
- B. Hold daily virtual meetings to review progress
- C. Utilize a web-based kanban board
- D. Task functional managers to drive accountability
- E. Implement time-keeping software for team members
Correct answer: B, C
Explanation
The correct answers, B and C, are effective because daily virtual meetings facilitate regular communication and progress tracking, while a web-based kanban board provides a visual representation of tasks, improving transparency and collaboration. The other options, while they may contribute to accountability or status tracking, do not enhance real-time collaboration and team engagement as effectively as the chosen answers.
