Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 952

The project sponsor recently requested that a vendor begins working toward adopting a hybrid approach. In response, the vendor hired a project manager experienced in agile for the project.

What does that project manager need to do to make the team work in a collaborative way?

Answer options

• A. Allocate time to mentor the team.
• B. Request the project management office (PMO) for a team of mentors.
• C. Identify any training gaps.
• D. Update the issue log.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The best approach for the project manager is to allocate time to mentor the team, as this directly encourages collaboration and supports team development. While identifying training gaps and requesting mentors can be useful, they do not immediately facilitate collaborative work. Updating the issue log does not foster teamwork or collaboration.
