    PMP · Question 45 · Task 1: Execute project with the urgency required to deliver business value

    A project team is using a Scrum framework, and during the sprint retrospective, team members identify that they spend too much time in meetings and not enough time on actual development work. The team feels that the current meeting structure is reducing their productivity. What should the project manager recommend?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Eliminate some Scrum ceremonies to give the team more development time

    B.

    Reduce the frequency of all meetings to weekly instead of daily

    C.

    Analyze the current meetings to identify inefficiencies and optimize their effectiveness

    D.

    Switch to a different agile framework that requires fewer meetings

    How to approach this question

    When teams complain about meeting overhead, focus on improving meeting effectiveness rather than eliminating valuable ceremonies or changing frameworks.

    Full Answer

    C.Analyze the current meetings to identify inefficiencies and optimize their effectiveness✓ Correct

    Common mistakes
