Exam PMP topic 1 question 766 discussion

Transparency and fairness: Involving all stakeholders ensures a transparent and fair discussion about the potential benefits and their allocation. Shared understanding: A stakeholder session clarifies how the software's benefit (freed-up staff) can be utilized across different areas, preventing confusion and potential conflicts. Collaborative ownership: Documenting agreed-upon benefits and assigning ownership creates accountability and avoids ambiguity about how the resources will be used.

A is the answer

A. Set up a stakeholder session with all teams to agree and document the benefits and establish ownership. In this situation, it's important to involve all relevant stakeholders in a collaborative manner to determine how the benefits of the new software will be distributed among the various business areas. Setting up a stakeholder session, as described in option A, allows for open discussion, agreement on the benefits, and the establishment of clear ownership. This approach ensures that the benefits are distributed in a fair and well-documented manner, taking into account the interests and needs of each business area.

document the benefits and establish ownership

A is the most appropriate option. This is because the new software implementation project will benefit several business areas, and it is important to ensure that all stakeholders are aware of the benefits and agree on how they will be realized and shared. By setting up a stakeholder session with all teams, the project manager can facilitate a discussion and agreement on the benefits, establish ownership for each benefit, and document the decisions made. This approach would help to ensure that all stakeholders are aligned and committed to realizing the benefits of the new software implementation.

The PO is part of the stakeholders. The PM is doing right to facilitate a meeting of all stakeholders involved since more business areas are going to benefit from the development. Such meeting will help with a resolution as to ownership as there will be contributions from diverse stakeholders rather than just the PO. Notice also that the discovery of who benefits was not just made by the PO but several business areas. Hence the importance of all stakeholders in the decision of benefit ownership.

Should it be "B"? Only sponsor has the right to decide who will be the end user of the project, not the PM or the end users themselves. Moreover, only sponsor can do the staffing, right?

Can someone explain?
