Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 837

In a complex development project with many clients and team members, there have been delays in completing the required work. What should the project manager do?

Answer options

• A. Empower the team members to do their work.
• B. Work with the team to develop a risk response plan.
• C. Send an email to human resources (HR) about this situation.
• D. Inform the project sponsor about this situation.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because developing a risk response plan helps address the underlying issues causing the delays. Option A, while empowering, does not directly tackle the delays. Option C is not proactive in resolving the issue, and option D, while informative, does not address the root cause of the delays.
