Selected Answer: A
Why the other options are incorrect: B. Ask the team members to record their concerns in the lessons learned log for future action ❌ This delays resolution and avoids immediate engagement—it doesn't address the root issue now. C. Instruct the team members to self-organize and resolve any outstanding issues ❌ This deflects responsibility. The project manager is the source of frustration and should take direct action. D. Encourage the team to follow the project plan that was developed with team input ❌ While that may remind them of shared planning, it ignores the real-time communication breakdown and fails to address the core issue of feeling unheard.
