Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 869

During the last iteration of a hybrid project., one of the key members of the team wants to leave the project. What should the project manager do to address this concern?

Answer options

• A. Update the burndown chart to reflect this resource’s absence.
• B. Keep activities as planned regardless of the resource change.
• C. Have a meeting with the resource to understand the issue.
• D. Request an additional resource to finish the project.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as meeting with the team member allows the project manager to understand their concerns and find a solution. Option A is incorrect because simply updating the burndown chart does not address the underlying issue. Option B is not advisable, as ignoring the resource change can lead to project challenges. Option D may not be necessary or feasible without first understanding the issue.
