A project manager works with a global virtual team. The team is facing difficulty in communicating with each other and often misses important messages. This difficulty leads to missed deadlines.
What should the project manager do to enhance project team effectiveness?
To enhance project team effectiveness in a global virtual team facing communication issues, the project manager should identify the root cause of these communication issues. Understanding the root cause is essential to address the problem effectively and implement the right solutions. Simply colocating the team or increasing the frequency of communications may not resolve the underlying issues, and scheduling a communications control board meeting might not be beneficial if the root causes are unknown. Identifying the root cause allows the project manager to tailor specific strategies to improve communication and prevent missed deadlines.
Need to understand the root cause before addressing it
Initially I thought D would be the correct answer. But B makes sense since issue identification is required to fix the problem.
I agree its is B - the PM will need to know what is the cause of the issue first!
Sticking with B
B. Identify the root cause of communication issues
always need to indentify the issue & root cause first
