Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 466

A senior vice president requested the creation of more agile teams to run projects of varying lengths and complexities in parallel with each other. This will impact the amount of time the project managers will be able to dedicate to each project. The project managers typically dedicate 50% of their time to projects regardless of their complexity.
What should the project manager do as a servant leader to help achieve this transformation?

Answer options

• A. Review the organizational process assets (OPAs) to evaluate mitigation plans for similar risks.
• B. Create a risk entry regarding the project manager's capacity and develop a mitigation plan.
• C. Empower the team to develop the necessary skills to move the project forward independently.
• D. Issue a change request to hire additional project managers based on the increased workload.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because empowering the team to develop necessary skills allows them to work independently, which is crucial for managing multiple projects effectively. Options A and B focus on risk management rather than addressing skill development, while option D suggests hiring more project managers, which may not be the most efficient solution for enhancing team agility.
