Question #: 83
Topic #: 1

Andy is the project manager for his project. Andy and his project team are identifying stakeholders who can significantly impact the project, what the level of participation for each identified stakeholder may be, and classifying the stakeholders by common characteristics, concerns, and their perception of the project. Andy and his project team want to define an approach as a result of this information to gain support from the stakeholders for their project. What should Andy and his project team create in this scenario?

AStakeholder assessment information

BStakeholder register

CCommunications management plan

DStakeholder management strategy

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The project's Communications Management Plan defines what information will be distributed, when

it will be distributed, to whom it will be

distributed, and the modality of the information.

Answer option D is incorrect. The Schedule Management Plan defines the project work, when the

project work will happen, resource

utilization, and how the schedule will be monitored and controlled.

Answer option C is incorrect. There is a stakeholder management strategy, but not a Stakeholder

Management Plan.

Answer option A is incorrect. The project's Scope Management Plan defines how the scope will be

created, how the changes will be allowed,

how the scope will be executed, monitored and controlled, and finally closed.

Stakeholder assessment info helps, but it’s not the main focus.

Really? A stakeholder register seems too basic for this situation.

I lean towards the stakeholder assessment information, but it sounds like it might not be the most comprehensive option compared to the stakeholder register.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the communications management plan might be relevant, but it seems more about how to communicate rather than identifying stakeholders.

This is a classic stakeholder management scenario. I'd start by creating a stakeholder register to document all the key players, their interests, and their level of influence. From there, I'd develop a tailored stakeholder management strategy to ensure we have the support we need to successfully deliver the project.

Okay, I think the key here is to create a stakeholder management strategy that outlines how Andy and the team will engage with the identified stakeholders. This should include things like communication plans, managing expectations, and aligning the project with their needs.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a few options that seem plausible, but I'll need to carefully read through the details to make sure I understand the specific requirements.

This seems like a straightforward stakeholder management question. I'd focus on identifying the key stakeholders, understanding their level of influence and concerns, and then developing a strategy to gain their support.

Okay, let me think this through. The question is asking for the minimum lighting requirement, so I'll need to find the option with the lowest overall lighting levels that still meets the criteria. I've got this!

I dunno, maybe Andy should just send out a few random emojis and see who responds. That's a stakeholder management strategy, right?

D. Stakeholder management strategy is the way to go. Gotta keep those stakeholders happy if you want your project to succeed! 'Stakeholder satisfaction is the name of the game, baby!'

B. Stakeholder register looks like the right answer to me. It's focused on identifying and classifying the stakeholders, which is a key first step before developing a management strategy.
