Selected Answer: A
Why the other options are incorrect: B. Unofficial ❌ Not quite right — the meetings are scheduled and purposeful, so they are official in practice even if informal in tone. C. Formal ❌ Formal communication involves structured documents, reports, or presentations — not brief conversational check-ins. D. Hierarchical ❌ This refers to top-down or chain-of-command communication, which doesn’t describe peer-to-peer team standups.

Selected Answer: A
A. Informal The regular standup meetings conducted by the project team to keep everyone updated on their work are an example of informal communication. Informal communication is characterized by its relaxed and spontaneous nature. Standup meetings in Agile methodologies like Scrum are often informal gatherings where team members share progress, discuss challenges, and plan the day's work. They are typically brief and focus on collaboration and transparency rather than following a strict formal structure.

Selected Answer: A
Regular standup meetings where the project team members provide updates on their work are typically considered informal communication. These meetings are often short, focused, and meant to provide quick updates on progress, obstacles, and plans. Informal communication channels are more flexible and less structured compared to formal communication, which follows established protocols and structures. Standup meetings encourage open and direct communication among team members and promote collaboration and transparency.

For me is formal as is a regular stakeholder briefing meeting. Informal covers emails, social media, and hall conversations.
