Exam PMP topic 1 question 4 discussion

collaboration before escalation

D. communication is key. direct communication with the person responsible for the delay. assess the situation and move forward. C is also a good choice but you are avoiding handling the issue directly. This can also cause a delay in communication. communication is key.

In this scenario, the project manager should choose: C. Contact the design team manager and ask to reconsider the priority list based on the latest situation. Reasoning: Collaboration: Engaging with the design team manager fosters collaboration and ensures that both teams are aligned on priorities. Resource Allocation: By asking to reconsider the priority list, the project manager can identify critical tasks that need immediate attention, allowing the team to adapt quickly to the new urgency. Addressing Roadblocks: This approach directly addresses the roadblock affecting the project timeline and seeks to find a solution that can keep the project on track. While meeting with the designer (option D) is also a viable approach, it may not effectively resolve the larger issue of prioritization and resource allocation at the team level.

correct is D as is directly talking about action and solution c is kind of PM shying away from responsibility and also the process will cause more delay

D The project manager should immediately address the dependency issue by discussing it with the designer to understand the delay and explore potential solutions, such as reallocating resources or adjusting priorities. They should also communicate the urgency of the situation to relevant stakeholders and consider alternative approaches to ensure the timely completion of the feature and meet the release date. Adigun.

Correct answer is D.To collaborate with assigned designer and to work on solution

Standup meetings is a feature for agile projects which we know as flexible. I will go with D because there is possibility that the designer has solutions to most of the challenges...

definitely C

C. I don't think it's pm's job to develop a solution.

D - stick with the process by engaging the designer first and collaborate.

D. Meet with the designer to share the current status and develop a solution to complete the task

I’ll go with D as well, and if the designer is having serious issues meeting up, we can then escalate to the design team manager

C. Contact the design team manager and ask to reconsider the priority list based on the latest situation

since its for meeting a new regulation, hence there is time constraint. The designer is assigned, so approach the designer's functional manager to sort this out.

Also for me answer is C.

Answer is C

A face-to-face meeting with the team and discussing solutions to road blockers work here. Escalating to the team manager should be the last option here.
