The project manager should **B. Define a user focus group as external stakeholders with a high influence on outcomes**. A user focus group can provide valuable insights into the user experience and help identify potential issues early in the project. This allows the project team to address these issues proactively, improving the likelihood of a successful product improvement. It's also important to maintain open lines of communication with this focus group throughout the project to ensure their feedback is continually incorporated.

B. To prevent customers from complaining about an even worse user experience compared to the previous product version, the project manager should define a user focus group as external stakeholders with a high influence on outcomes. The user focus group should be involved throughout the project to provide feedback on the product's user experience, identify potential issues, and provide suggestions for improvement. This approach allows the project team to identify potential issues early on and make appropriate changes to prevent negative user experiences.
