Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 97

A verbal announcement is made that the new team member joining the Scrum team has limited mobility. The scrum master is aware that some team members are unsure how the dynamics of the team will change.
What should the scrum master do?

Answer options

• A. Create a stakeholder engagement plan
• B. Design a communications management plan
• C. Update the team charter accordingly
• D. Set up a meeting to discuss accommodations the team will have to make

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct action is to update the team charter accordingly, as it helps to clarify roles and expectations in light of new team dynamics. While creating a stakeholder engagement plan and a communications management plan are important, they do not directly address the immediate concerns about team dynamics. Setting up a meeting to discuss accommodations is useful, but updating the charter is a more formal step to ensure all team members are aligned.
