A new agile project manager accepts an assignment to manage a well-established team. Many team members have worked together on this product for several years. During a meeting, the project manager notices that team members offer little vocal interaction, yet all required tasks are completed on time.
What type of behaviour does this describe?
The behavior described is indicative of a collaborative team. Even though team members offer little vocal interaction, they effectively complete all necessary tasks on time. This suggests that the team has developed a high level of understanding and trust, enabling them to work together smoothly without needing extensive verbal communication. Such collaboration is typical of well-established teams who have evolved efficient methods for achieving their goals.
It is B. Remember the Performing Stage from the Tuckman's Team Development Cycle. In the performing stage of the Tuckman model, your team is at its most productive. You have a strong foundation of trust and understanding, built during the forming and storming stages. Your team has learned to communicate effectively during the norming phase. That team members offer little vocal interaction is a learned way to communicate effectively. So, this is a collaboration.
Good explanation
I would go with B.
Synchronous. Not Passive, as this comes with anger No random
i vote A
"yet all required tasks are completed on time", hence the team is collaborating. I would choose B.
C. Passive-aggressive behavior best describes the observed situation where tasks are completed despite minimal vocal interaction among team members.
B for sure
Bis the Correct Answer
Vote A
he/she tries to be Synchronous among them although all tasks have been finished successfully. who is not passive and random since the quest. implies.
Don't know the right answer (so far). A - maybe, even they do not communicate well, they are still delivering as expected B - they do not communicate open, cannot be collaborative behavior C - this is unproductive behavior, so they wouldn't deliver as is described D - I'm not sure even exist this type of behavior
Synchronous communication is any communication that happens in real-time between two or more people, with the expectation of receiving an immediate response. In a typical onsite office setting, the majority of communication that happens is synchronous and often happens without a second thought.
It is B = collaborative. It is a tricky question. Synchronous communication is a type of communication from a "technical" aspect - that is practically speaking between at least two members in real time. Here, it is emphasized the aspect of the effective and productive - all required tasks are completed on time! That is because communication is collaborative, no matter whether it is a synchronous or asynchronous type of communication.
B. Collaborative. This behaviour describes a collaborative team that works together effectively towards a common goal. The Agile framework emphasizes the importance of collaboration and communication among team members to achieve project success. Even though the team members in this scenario offer little vocal interaction, they are still able to work collaboratively and complete tasks on time. This suggests that they have developed effective communication and collaboration methods, possibly through the use of Agile practices such as daily stand-up meetings and frequent progress reviews.
B is a bit more than A.
Yes, this is B.
I choose A
me too
A the correct
Passive-aggressiveness is simply the indirect expression of hostility. A well established team is not expected to have hostile mindset. Not sure about option A, but certainly not C.
