Exam PMP topic 1 question 671 discussion

D makes more sense to me. You always make decisions collaboratively by discussing it with the team. B, does not sound right. The question is not about equality or preferring someone over others

In this situation, the project manager should proactively address the issue by meeting with the team to discuss and define the expected behavior in stressful situations. This involves setting clear expectations for how team members should handle stress and providing guidance on effective coping mechanisms. Additionally, initiating practice sessions can help the team develop and reinforce positive behaviors in the face of stress. Open communication and proactive coaching can contribute to a more resilient and efficient team.

B. The PM needs to first ensure that they have created the best working environment for a team. So I selected B. Create an environment of respect and fairness so the team can increase their project performance in stressful situations

Option D involves a focused approach to address the immediate concern. By meeting with the team to discuss the correct and expected behavior in stressful situations and starting to practice it, the project manager can provide guidance, set clear expectations, and initiate a process of behavior change. This approach helps the team develop coping strategies and resilience in the face of stress, leading to improved efficiency and performance in challenging situations.

D. Meet with the team to discuss the correct, expected behavior in stressful situations and start practicing it

D is the only option to deal with issues on stress behavior

The question is, what should the PM do, not what should have the PM done in the beginning of the project.

D is not correct since there is no mention of behaviour issues
