PMI Exam PMI-200 Topic 4 Question 49 Discussion

Actual exam question for PMI's PMI-200 exam

Question #: 49
Topic #: 4

Since the last iteration, the team has grown from six members to 14 members. As a result, in the current iteration, the team room is crowded and uncomfortable during the team's daily standup. It takes the team longer than the ideal amount of time to complete their standup, which creates problems for the team's current schedule. Based on this information, the project manager should:

AMove the standup to a conference call format so space is not a problem.

BIncrease the standup duration and update the team's calendars.

CAssign each team member a maximum speaking time for future standups.

DSplit the team into sub teams and have them schedule separate standups.

Option C could work too, assigning a max speaking time for each team member. That would help keep the standup on track, but might feel a bit restrictive.

I'm leaning towards option D - splitting the team into sub-teams and having separate standups. That way, we can keep the format and benefits of the daily standup, but in a more manageable setting.

I agree, the crowded team room and longer standup times are definitely causing problems for the schedule. We need to find a solution that addresses the space issue while still keeping the team aligned.

Hmm, this question is really testing our understanding of team dynamics and agile practices. The team size has grown significantly, so it's clear we need to adapt the standup format to make it more efficient.
