Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 21
An equipment vendor will implement a new production line for a client company. The year-long project will include 2- to 4-month long iterations; however, the client's project manager has no agile experience.
How should the project manager ensure that the client is effectively represented in the daily meetings?
Answer options
- A. Recommend agile training programs that best suit the client project manager's schedule.
- B. Propose a session for essential agile knowledge transfer for the client team to align with the daily meeting goals.
- C. Realign the project to a predictive approach to ensure optimal collaboration between the teams.
- D. Provide the client project manager with agile best practice documents and web resources.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because conducting a knowledge transfer session directly addresses the client's lack of agile experience, helping them to better engage in daily meetings. Option A, while beneficial, does not provide immediate support for the daily meetings. Option C is incorrect as it removes the agile framework, which is essential for the project's iterative nature. Option D provides resources but lacks the interactive element needed for effective understanding and participation.
