The project manager should allow team members to resolve their own conflict.

Which of the following is taken to stay in touch with the work and attitudes of project team members?

Observation and conversation

360-degree feedback is a type of project performance appraisal, where feedback is received from all levels of interaction with a team member. This provides information about a team member but not from a team member. Next, observation and conversation come together as a technique from the Manage Project Team process. It’s a way for the project manager to monitor the team’s progress, accomplishments, and interpersonal issues and is therefore the correct answer. Issue log simply tracks issues so is not relevant here, and team-building activities seems like a good choice, except that the purpose is to grow relationships among the team so the focus is on establishing this cohesiveness and of working together, not of assessing work attitudes.
