Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 725

A team is not delivering the committed work. Cards are not moving on the kanban board, and the burndown chart shows that the sprint progress is slow.

What should the agile project manager do?

Answer options

• A. Consider the use of alternative performance metrics.
• B. Change the work in progress (WIP) limit to reflect the team's capacity.
• C. Discuss the performance with senior leadership.
• D. Meet with the project team members who are slow in delivering tasks.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because adjusting the work in progress (WIP) limit can help the team focus on completing tasks, thus improving their flow. Options A and C do not directly address the immediate issue of task completion, while D may lead to blame rather than solutions.
