Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 615

A project is about to start with a global project team. Travel is not a viable option for project team members, so most will participate virtually.

What should the project manager do to engage the team?

Answer options

• A. Invest in a virtual collaboration/colocation environment.
• B. Have one-on-one meetings with team members to improve communication.
• C. Ask human resources (HR) for team-building recommendations.
• D. Schedule weekly team meetings to encourage collaboration.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because investing in a virtual collaboration/colocation environment provides the necessary tools and infrastructure for effective remote teamwork. While options B, C, and D may contribute to team engagement, they do not provide the fundamental technology and environment needed for a globally dispersed team to work together effectively.
