PMP EXAM
SAMPLE Q & A

You have just taken over a project in execution. During your first week, you determine that the project team
members spend a lot of time responding to unexpected requests for information from different project
stakeholders. Because of these interruptions, the team cannot focus on their project activities, and as a result, the
project is behind schedule.

What should you do first?
A. Tell the team members to stop responding to unexpected requests since it is not the responsibility of the team
B. Push the team to respond to all the requests faster so that they can perform their assigned project activities on
time
C. Ask the team to forward all stakeholder inquiries to you so that the team members can focus on their assigned
tasks
D. Review the communications management plan to understand how stakeholder requests should be handled
HINT: What should a project manager do when issues are recognized?
Question

The correct answer is D
Monitor Communications is the process of monitoring and controlling communications throughout the entire
project life cycle to ensure the information needs of the project and its stakeholders are met.
In this scenario, the stakeholders are reaching out directly to the project team members, which is not the most
effective use of the team's time. To determine why this is happening, you need to review the communications
management plan to determine how stakeholder inquiries are to be managed.
With this information, you can best judge whether the stakeholders are violating that agreement. After that, you
can proceed to make whatever changes are needed to shield the project team from the time-consuming
responses to the stakeholders' requests for information and develop a better communications protocol for
stakeholder information requests.
