[All PMP Questions]

A project manager needs the team to define the steps and identify the risks of migrating data to a new system. What type of leadership should the project manager use to accomplish this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

= The project manager should use a servant leadership style to accomplish this task. A servant leader is someone who focuses on serving the needs and interests of the team, rather than directing or controlling them. A servant leader empowers the team to make decisions, fosters collaboration and trust, and supports the team's growth and development. A servant leader can help the team define the steps and identify the risks of migrating data to a new system by facilitating discussions, providing guidance, removing impediments, and ensuring alignment with the project vision and goals.Reference: (Project Management Professional (PMP) Reference Materials source and documents)

Servant leadership could work, but I think the project manager needs to be more hands-on for a data migration project. Rolling up their sleeves and getting their hands dirty might be more effective.

Laissez-faire? Really? That's about as useful as a chocolate teapot in this situation. The team needs direction, not a nap.
