What is Tom overseeing with the project managers?

Marysil is an enterprise project manager for Cups on Fire. To date, she has identified risks, analyzed them, and developed risk responses for her project. What activity is she likely to perform next?

Implement risk responses

Based on the activities Marysil has already carried out, the next logical step would be to begin implementing the risk responses based on plans documented in the risk register. While some risk responses are implemented when risk triggers occur, others are implemented immediately to avoid or exploit a risk.

Within Agile approaches, how are requirements documented?

In the backlog

Requirements are documented through user stories that make up the backlog. The user stories are then prioritized and refined.

Select two examples of project life cycles?

Predictive

Adaptive

According to the PMBOK® Guide, there are four common project life cycles: predictive, iterative, incremental, and Agile. Hybrid refers to a combination of two or more life cycles.

This earned value management calculation is the projected or estimated cost performance that the remaining work of the project must accomplish to meet the BAC or EAC.

TCPI

The to-complete performance index (TCPI) is the projected cost performance the remaining work of the project must achieve in order to meet the BAC or EAC.

Where would the project manager document the various strategies for involving with stakeholders, based on their needs and reactions to the project?

Stakeholder engagement plan

The stakeholder management plan, which is created out of the Plan Stakeholder Management process, identifies the strategies needed to effectively engage stakeholders. The plan is based on the stakeholder analysis completed as part of creating the stakeholder register. While the project management plan is also technically correct, it is not the best answer as a more specific option was available.

What is the reason for the project manager’s failure?

Request that the team member repeat the message back to ensure it was understood

As the sender of the message, the project manager is responsible for confirming that the message was understood correctly and that the information was clear and complete. In this scenario, the project manager assumed that the message was understood.

This approach is associated with which Agile remedy?

Kanban method

Kanban is based on lean-thinking principles and helps the team stay organized; it keeps team members collaborating and everyone informed. A flow-based agile approach such as Kanban pulls work from the backlog according to the team’s capacity to perform the work.
