Actual exam question for APMG-International's AgilePM-Practitioner exam
Question #: 37
Topic #: 4
[All AgilePM-Practitioner Questions]

Xan Insurance Company operates from one location - a large, open-plan

office in the centre of a city. Those employees that will be working within the

Solution Development Team are all based in this office but work at different

ends of the office in separate departments.

What action should the Project Manager suggest to ensure the most effective

collaboration of the Solution Development Team?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The most effective action the Project Manager can suggest to ensure the most effective collaboration of the Solution Development Team is:

C . Relocate these employees to a new project area, with a number of desks where the Solution Development Team can sit together.

Co-locating team members in a shared space is a well-established practice in Agile environments to enhance communication, collaboration, and team dynamics. By having the Solution Development Team sit together, the Project Manager can facilitate more efficient face-to-face interactions, quick resolution of issues, and a better sense of team unity. This approach leverages the benefits of immediate communication and collaborative problem-solving, which are key in Agile project management. Even though the team members are currently in the same office, their separation into different ends of the office could hinder spontaneous communication and collaboration. Creating a dedicated project area for the team can significantly improve their ability to work together effectively.

A group email? That’s so outdated!

I disagree, D is fine since they’re in the same office.

I think option D is too dismissive. Just being in the same office doesn't guarantee collaboration. We had a case study that showed how layout impacts teamwork.

I feel like creating an email group might not be effective. We had a practice question where face-to-face interaction was emphasized, so I lean towards relocating them.

I'm not sure if just moving them is enough. We talked about using tools like video conferencing for remote teams, but it feels different here since they're all in the same office.

I remember discussing the importance of physical proximity for team collaboration in class. I think relocating the team could really help.
