PMP Exam - Question 347


A government agency is developing a new connectivity policy. The assigned project manager is a famous economist with international recognition. The team is eager to work with the project manager, but feels intimidated. The project manager realizes that a junior economist, whose tasks are behind schedule, is especially intimidated by the situation.

What should the project manager do first?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

The project manager should first consider organizing paired work sessions for the junior and senior economists. This approach provides immediate support to the junior economist, helping them catch up with tasks and gain confidence through mentorship. By pairing with a senior economist, the junior member can learn more effectively and address their feelings of intimidation, which can positively impact overall team productivity and morale.
