Exam PMP topic 1 question 274 discussion

C is wrong because the project manager can not reprioritize the product backlog, this is the task of the product owner. The team must work with the product owner to make any adjustments to the backlog or iterations.

Reprioritizing the backlog after each iteration is a common practice in Agile, which helps the team reevaluate what is most valuable in a changing environment.

Answer C is the only anwser talks about values, which related to Benefits realization C. Take action to reprioritize the backlog after every iteration to evaluate if user stories are still valuable to the business.

Question asks for "Benefits realization". Option C is the most appropriate because it aligns with the agile principles of adapting to change. Reprioritizing the backlog ensures that the team focuses on the most valuable user stories based on the latest business conditions, which is critical for ensuring benefits realization throughout the project.

I go with A. C is wrong.

As human approach in agile, i think face to face is more important and make sense.

The project manager should **C. Take action to reprioritize the backlog after every iteration to evaluate if user stories are still valuable to the business**. In an agile project, the backlog is a living document that evolves as the project progresses and as the business environment changes. Regularly reprioritizing the backlog ensures that the team is always working on the most valuable features. This approach allows the project to adapt to changes in the business environment and ensures that the project continues to deliver value. However, the project manager should also consider the specific circumstances and dynamics of the project and the team when deciding on the best course of action. It's always important for the project manager to use their judgement and consider the unique aspects of the situation when deciding on the best course of action.

C. Take action to reprioritize the backlog after every iteration to evaluate if user stories are still valuable to the business

The best way to pay attention to changes that can affect the project is to keep checking if if user stories are still valuable to the business

Option A is the most appropriate action in this situation. The project manager should work with the product owner to implement face-to-face communication between the team and product owner to change the iteration objectives as needed. This ensures that any changes that may affect the product are identified and addressed in a timely manner. Reprioritizing the backlog and applying pair programming may also be helpful in some situations, but they do not specifically address the project sponsor's concerns about changes that may affect benefits realization

Project manager don't re-prioritize backlog ,only the product owner does B is the right answer.

C should be answer.

C is correct

What if a change that renders the current sprint goal obsolete occurs? Here I think the project manager has to proactive rather than reactive.

C. Take action to reprioritize the backlog after every iteration to evaluate if user stories are still valuable to the business. To identify changes that may affect the product, the project manager should take action to reprioritize the backlog after every iteration. This will allow the project team to evaluate if the user stories are still valuable to the business and if they need to be adjusted or removed in light of any changes in the business environment. The project manager should also involve the product owner in this process, as they are the ones who are more familiar with the business requirements.

Backlog priorities are defined by the product owner. So C is cannot be the right answer. I would say B (We don't even know the type of project so D is wrong) but I'm not sure if stopping an iteration is a good idea.
