B. Update the communications matrix to ensure that the client team member is included. Including the client team member in the communications matrix acknowledges their role and importance in the project. This step will facilitate better communication, ensuring that they receive the necessary information and support to understand the project elements. By addressing their lack of understanding early on, the project manager can help prevent future delays and improve overall project progress.

Trick question. B. Update the communications matrix to ensure that client team member is included Updating the communications matrix ensures that all relevant stakeholders, including the client team member who is causing delays due to a lack of understanding, are included in project communications. This helps keep everyone informed and reduces misunderstandings that can hinder project progress.
