    PMP · Question 48 · Task 10: Manage project changes

    A project manager is working on a software development project using an agile approach. The product owner frequently changes priorities during sprints, causing the team to stop work on some user stories and start others. This is affecting team morale and sprint predictability. What should the project manager do?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Allow the changes since agile values responding to change over following a plan

    B.

    Refuse all mid-sprint changes to protect team productivity

    C.

    Educate the product owner about sprint commitment and establish clear change protocols

    D.

    Switch to a more flexible agile framework that accommodates frequent changes

    How to approach this question

    Mid-sprint changes violate agile principles about sprint commitment. Address this through education and establishing proper change protocols.

    Full Answer

    C.Educate the product owner about sprint commitment and establish clear change protocols✓ Correct
    Agile frameworks include sprint commitment principles that protect team focus and predictability. Mid-sprint changes should be exceptional, requiring education about agile principles and clear protocols.

    Common mistakes

    Allowing unlimited mid-sprint changes, rigidly refusing all changes, or changing frameworks instead of addressing the protocol issue.
