People and Stakeholders Practice Question

Question

A scenario includes a common misconception for the PMP Project Management Professional involving resource planning in People and Stakeholders. Which answer is best? (Item 149)

Answer choices

  1. A. The best answer is to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice for the resource planning scenario.
  2. B. Rely on informal custom instead of the applicable rule, control, or standard.
  3. C. Skip verification because the previous case had the same answer.
  4. D. Document nothing because documentation could create follow-up questions.

Correct Answer

A. The best answer is to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice for the resource planning scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is A because resource planning is tested by asking candidates to select the response that protects project value, uses appropriate tailoring, engages stakeholders, and follows ethical project management practice. The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
