Which of the following statements are true?
The 'change curve' describes a normal human reaction to change.
The 'change curve' only applies to changes that are perceived as negative.
Statement 1: Correct. The change curve describes typical emotional responses to change, including denial, resistance, exploration, and commitment.
Statement 2: Incorrect. The change curve applies to both positive and negative changes, as it reflects the adjustment process regardless of the perceived nature of the change.

Which of the following statements, about building and maintaining engagement throughout change, are true?
Engaging people in change is simple and routine.
A simple formula can be applied for all change situations.
Statement 1: Incorrect. Engaging people in change is complex and requires tailored strategies. It's not a simple or routine task.
Statement 2: Incorrect. Change situations vary greatly, and no single formula works universally. Agile emphasizes context-specific approaches.

While the definition of a Must Have requirement is clearly defined, the definition of Could Have and Should Have requirements can be less clear.
When, ideally, should the project team discuss and agree some objective criteria for how these requirements will be prioritized?
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (paraphrased from AgilePM planning/prioritization guidance):
AgilePM expects teams to establish objective MoSCoW criteria and decision rules during Foundations. Foundations is where the delivery approach, governance, Business Case, scope boundaries, quality expectations, and planning baselines are agreed. Clarifying how Should and Could items will be interpreted (e.g., business value thresholds, regulatory constraints, UX standards, operational readiness factors) avoids later ambiguity, speeds trade-off decisions inside timeboxes, and protects the Business Case. While Feasibility assesses whether proceeding makes sense, and Development executes the timeboxed work, Foundations is the optimal moment to set shared prioritization rules, acceptance criteria structures, and change control protocols so that delivery can proceed predictably while flexing scope responsibly. Hence, C is the correct choice.
Which statement about DSDM roles is true?
In DSDM, it is true that one DSDM role does not necessarily mean one person. This allows for flexibility in assigning roles based on the project's needs and the individuals' skills and capacities. It is possible for one person to hold multiple roles or for a role to be shared among several people, depending on what is most effective for the project.
Where should the specific measures be recorded, to check whether the beneficiary of a User Story can use it?
In agile practice, a User Story is often framed by the ''3 Cs'': Card, Conversation, and Confirmation. The Card captures just enough of the requirement to spark dialogue. The Conversation is the collaborative discussion among Product Owner (or Customer/Business), Developers, and other stakeholders that elaborates details and clarifies intent. The Confirmation element records the specific, testable acceptance criteria that will be used to verify the story delivers the intended outcome for its beneficiary (the user or customer). These acceptance criteria translate stakeholder expectations into objective checks---often articulated as scenarios or examples---that determine whether the story is fit for purpose and ''Done.'' Agile Project Management approaches (including AgilePM/DSDM and Scrum-aligned practices) emphasize that acceptance criteria belong with the story as its Confirmation, because that is what allows the team to assert value delivery, guide development and testing, and anchor Sprint Review demonstrations. Therefore, the appropriate place to record the concrete measures by which a user can successfully use the delivered capability is the Confirmation section of the User Story.
