For Q#8, @21:59 ,Option A: Refer to the stakeholder management plan seems more suitable. The Plan will help identifying the strategies, developing approaches & actions required to promote productive involvement of stakeholders in project. Primarily strategies for how we are going to change the current level of stakeholder to desired .( Project approving/ supporting/ leading etc) Option C: Collaboration, Openness & transparency appears to be incorrect on 2 counts 1. They are more of Agile principles, while the general thumb rule is that the scenario in any question is considered to be Predictive unless stated otherwise either explicitly or implicitly. 2. How does being collaborative , open & transparent really help in ensuring that the local party gets inclined towards approving the project. We also need to contemplate if their approval is really mandated ? Are they significant enough to hamper or stall the project in any way. All that would be generally found in the stakeholder engagement plan . Your thoughts Please
Thanks for the question. This is more problem solving than stakeholder engagement. There is an issue now, so what do you do? Referring to the stakeholder engagement plan will not help move this situation forward. The problem has happened (the engagement plan has not prevented it). It stopped at checking the plan. And then what? Nothing else is alluded to. So what do you do next? You have to apply interpersonal skills and communications. This is what makes the exam challenging. 90% of the answers will be to do something that promotes a humanistic point of view vs. check a plan. In 2022, this is what PMI expects. Even if the answer is agile-sounding, the question can be viewed as hybrid and you still need to lean on selecting things that move situations along better, than just referring to a plan. 90% of PMP questions have ZERO ITTO or PROCESS names in both the questions and answers.
@26:00,. Coaching does not presume that the team member has shared the confidential information. After all, the question says the senior manager _asked_ for it, not that the senior manager "obtained". We can assume the manager is niot privy to the informartion; otherwise he/she would not have asked a team member for it. So B does not make sense.
Coaching the team member instead of attending to the requestor's needs, leaves the requestor high and dry and the problem is not solved. Being privy to information does not mean the individual has the technical capacity to retrieve it. What ever the case, the exam will test problem-solving. Coaching here does not solve the immediate problem here.
Remember that the this is something the team decides on. Not the higher-ups under most normal agile circumstances. If the Team Charter is not an option, it could come down to the "Agile Project Charter" as a last ditch effort.
Q#9, Stakeholder register has" communication requirements "& "communication frequency "of stakeholders. But it doesn't have "communication flow channels" ? Pls correct if wrong
That is not so Sumit. The COM REQ and COM FREQ is determined in PLANNING. Stakeholder Register is created in INITIATING. --------------- PMBOK SAYS: The main output of the Identify Stakeholders process is the stakeholder register. Mainly it has: ** Identification information. Name, organizational position, **Assessment information. Major requirements, expectations, potential for influencing project outcomes, AND phase of the project life cycle where the stakeholder has the most influence or impact. **Stakeholder classification. Internal/external, impact/influence/power/interest, or any other classification model chosen by the PM

Hi phill, question #10. EV,AC,BAC and PV have been provided.SPI and CPI are both above 1, which to me is proof that D is the appropriate answer.
Your youtube contents really helped me in preparing and passing my PMP exam.
CONGRATS PMP BOSS! Great to hear!

Is definition of done defined in team charter or project charter?
Team Charter! Thanks for commenting and best wishes!

Really tricky and tough
Thanks Kunal. I hope it helps beef up PMP muscle! Cheers!
Good to know you from the same family Honeywell...
Lovely company! I greatly enjoyed my work there!
Why wouldn't you communicate? I thought communication is a key stone of pm?
Can you expand on which question this is in reference to? Sometimes communicating does not solve problems. It is a red herring on many questions.
