iSQI CTFL-AcT Exam - Topic 3 Question 30 Discussion

Actual exam question for iSQI's CTFL-AcT exam

Question #: 30
Topic #: 3

The project team is currently facing a difficult situation originating from their difficulty in envisioning the future and the necessary steps to reach it together with a certain loss of motivation due to a strong feeling of stagnation. You try to unlock the situation by proposing a workshop. Which one would fit the best?

DYou visualize all remaining major milestones of the project, starting with today and ending with project release. Then, you ask the team to identify and discuss the necessary actions to move forward from the present situation and to reach the milestones.

CYou organize a day out with challenging physical exercises practiced in teams followed by an afterwork dinner and drink. After all, nothing is best for motivation than hard times together, strong common objectives and a promise of good time.

AYou ask two volunteers to play a part in front of the team. One will try to defend the project and propose positive arguments and ways forward. The other will do the opposite. You then recapitulate the major arguments of both sides and debate them openly with the team.

BYou draw a staircase with 11 steps, each of them representing a major milestone of the project. The bottom of the stairs corresponds to the first day of the project and the upper step means that the project is released. You locate the present situation in the middle of the stairs. The team is asked to identify and discuss the major steps down and up.

I remember a similar question about team motivation in our practice exams. Maybe a brainstorming session would help clarify their goals?

I think a visioning workshop could be effective, but I'm not entirely sure how to structure it to keep everyone engaged.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'd want to gather more information about the team's specific challenges before proposing a workshop. Is the issue more about vision and strategy, or is it more of a team dynamics/motivation problem? Depending on that, I might lean towards a visioning/goal-setting workshop or a team-building/problem-solving session.

This seems like a classic case of needing to get the team unstuck and re-energized. I'd probably suggest a facilitated workshop focused on problem-solving and action planning. Get the team brainstorming creative solutions, then work backwards to map out the key steps and responsibilities. Throw in some fun, engaging activities to boost morale too.

Okay, I think I've got a strategy here. Since the key issues seem to be a lack of vision and low motivation, I'd recommend a visioning or goal-setting workshop. That could help the team get aligned on a shared future state and the steps needed to get there. Might also be good to incorporate some team-building or morale-boosting activities.

I'm a bit confused by this question. Are we supposed to propose a specific workshop format, or just the general type of workshop that would be most appropriate? I'm not sure how to approach this without more details about the team's exact situation.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'd probably start by trying to understand the root causes of the team's difficulties - is it a lack of clear vision, communication issues, or just general burnout? That would help me decide which workshop approach would be most effective.
