Selected Answer: B
B. Help engineer A to become familiar with this new role and ensure engineer B stays motivated. Given that management's decision remains unchanged, the project manager should respect the decision and work to support engineer A in their new role as team lead. This includes helping them become familiar with their new responsibilities and providing any necessary coaching or guidance. Additionally, the project manager should ensure that engineer B stays motivated and engaged by recognizing their contributions and providing them with opportunities for growth and development within the project. This approach promotes a positive working environment and supports the overall success of the project.
