Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 829

The sponsor of a newly formed agile project is struggling to understand the scope and to determine when critical product features will be ready to use. What should the project manager do?

Answer options

• A. Move the team’s kanban board to a more visible place to improve the communication with key stakeholders.
• B. Create a detailed project management plan with all planned releases and the tasks needed to deliver them.
• C. Establish the project vision, break down the mam features backlog, prioritize, and create an overall release plan.
• D. Invite the stakeholder to the project’s daily meetings, providing better visibility on what the team is working on.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because establishing the project vision and creating an overall release plan allows for better understanding and prioritization of features. Option A merely improves visibility without addressing the scope. Option B focuses on detailed planning, which is less flexible in an agile context, and Option D, while beneficial for transparency, does not directly assist in defining the project scope or feature readiness.
