HINT: Do the team members understand why the policy is in place?
Question
3. The correct answer is C.
There is not enough information in the question to determine what resources exactly the scenario is
talking about and what this checkout procedure means. Prospective PMP aspirants have to keep in
mind that questions on the real PMP exam may be short and vague.
This question is a good example of what you may encounter on your exam. Regardless of how
ambiguous the scenario is, always try to select the best answer to the question asked, even if none of
the choices looks like a perfect/ideal answer.
During the Direct and Manage Project Work process, the project manager is guiding, directing, and
facilitating the plans of the project. Based on the scenario, it appears that the plans require the
resources to be checked out.
Answer
4. Those plans need to be better communicated and understood. There are many actions the project
manager could take to direct and manage the project team to follow through with those plans.
The answer choice that best aligns to that need is to discuss the purpose and rationale for the
resource checkout and why the team should follow those plans.
