A large multi-year project requires highly skilled staff for successful deployment. The management team and the project sponsor have analyzed the resource requirements and agreed to have permanent staff hired for the project to avoid potential budget overrun. However, there is a risk of staff turnover during the course of the project, which may have an impact on the delivery.
Which two actions should the project manager take to mitigate this risk? (Choose two.)
To mitigate the risk of staff turnover in a large multi-year project, the project manager should focus on two main strategies: enhancing the competencies of the project team and increasing the trained staff to create a backup for resources. Enhancing the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching ensures that all team members are well-prepared and capable of handling their responsibilities. This reduces the likelihood of critical knowledge gaps if staff members leave. Additionally, increasing the trained staff to create back-up for resources provides redundancy within the team, ensuring that project progress is not impeded by unexpected turnover. By implementing these strategies, the project manager can maintain project stability and continuity despite potential staff changes.
C. Enhance the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching. Enhancing the competencies of the project team will help to ensure that the team has the skills and knowledge needed to deliver the project successfully. This will help to mitigate the risk of staff turnover as the team will be more capable of handling the project's complexities and challenges. E. Introduce a recognition program to motivate and reward resource performance. Recognition programs can help to retain staff by providing rewards and incentives for good performance. Additionally, it can also help to improve motivation and engagement among staff, which can help to mitigate the risk of staff turnover.
why D is not correct?
Increasing the trained staff will increase budget over-run
Why C won't increase budget?
Why C won't increase budget?
I think D, E are correct
The two actions that the project manager should take to mitigate the risk of staff turnover are: C. Enhance the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching. E. Introduce a recognition program to motivate and reward resource performance. These actions will help to ensure that the project team is highly skilled and motivated, which will reduce the likelihood of staff turnover.
I will say D & E
C&E are my answers
I think that E will be more effective in addressing staff turnover
Agree C and E
These two actions can help mitigate the risk of staff turnover during the course of the project. By enhancing the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching, the project manager can ensure that team members are more skilled and motivated to stay with the project. By increasing the trained staff to create back-up for resources, the project manager can ensure that there are enough resources to cover any unexpected turnover.
C. Enhance the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching D. Increase the trained staff to create back-up for resources
I mean... C and D are pretty much complementary... E seems a good idea as well but if C is right, why should D be right too?
C&E are correct
CD is correct
CD. Risk requires response plan. E is looks like lottery to pray for uncertainty. Therefore, it`s not the proper plan.
