Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 1347

A project manager is leading a team of diverse individuals of all ages. The working hours for the project were set at the beginning of the project, and all team members agreed to the hours. However, later in the project, one of the team members informed the project manager that the previously agreed upon hours no longer work due to the team member's personal commitments.
What should the project manager do?

Answer options

• A. Changed the duration of iterations to deliver more value
• B. Validated the iteration goals with the customer
• C. Invited the customer to the daily meetings
• D. Helped the team redefine the MVP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because adjusting the duration of iterations can help accommodate the team member's new circumstances while still delivering value. Options B and C do not address the issue of team member availability, and D does not directly relate to resolving the scheduling conflict.
