PMP · Question 29 · Task 4: Engage stakeholders
A project manager is leading a software development project where the client has requested frequent demonstrations of progress. However, the development team prefers to work in longer cycles and feels that frequent demos interrupt their workflow and reduce productivity. How should the project manager address this conflict?
Answer options:
Side with the development team since they understand the technical work best
Facilitate a discussion between the client and team to find a demonstration schedule that meets both needs
Implement the client's request since they are paying for the project
Propose a compromise schedule without consulting either party
