PMP · Question 15 · Task 12: Define team ground rules
A project team has established ground rules including 'no interruptions during presentations' and 'all decisions require consensus.' During a critical design review meeting, a senior stakeholder repeatedly interrupts the presenter and tries to push through a decision without full team input. What should the project manager do FIRST?
Answer options:
Privately speak with the senior stakeholder after the meeting about the ground rule violations
Politely remind the stakeholder of the ground rules and redirect the discussion to follow the agreed process
Allow the senior stakeholder to continue since they have organizational authority
End the meeting and reschedule when the stakeholder can follow the ground rules
