Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 882

An agile senior project team member suddenly resigns from the organization. Following this departure, the remaining team members are having difficulty accessing information and are unable to complete a deliverable.

What should the project manager have done to avoid this situation?

Answer options

• A. Ensured the project repository is up to date.
• B. Made an effort to reemploy the senior project team member.
• C. Updated the job descriptions for all team roles.
• D. Provided specialist training for all team members.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, emphasizes the importance of maintaining an up-to-date project repository to ensure all team members can access necessary information. Option B is not a viable solution as reemploying the individual isn't always possible. Option C, while useful for clarity in roles, does not directly address the issue of information access. Option D may enhance skills but does not resolve the immediate problem of accessing the needed information.
