SAP C_OCM_2503 Exam - Topic 6 Question 12 Discussion

Actual exam question for SAP's C_OCM_2503 exam

Question #: 12
Topic #: 6

The stakeholder analysis in a cloud project reveals that some individual stakeholders belong to the ''supporters'' category. Which strategies should you use? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

AAsk them to exert pressure on the skeptics in their area of responsibility

BInvolve them in project activities to facilitate design decisions

CAssign them project roles to increase their influence on the success of the project

DUse their positive attitude to influence others in their area of responsibility

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C, D

Supporters in SAP OCM stakeholder analysis (e.g., enthusiastic managers) are assets to leverage. Option C is correct because assigning project roles (e.g., change agent) amplifies their influence---e.g., a supportive lead driving adoption in their unit boosts success. Option D is correct as their positive attitude can sway others---e.g., a supporter sharing benefits in a meeting shifts skeptics' views organically.

Option A is incorrect---pressuring skeptics risks backlash; influence should be subtle, not coercive. Option B is incorrect; design decisions (e.g., process flows) are for experts, not supporters' primary role, which is advocacy. SAP OCM maximizes supporters' enthusiasm strategically.

''Leverage supporters by assigning roles to enhance their impact and using their positivity to influence others effectively'' (SAP Activate, Stakeholder Management Strategies).

I think A could backfire. Pressure rarely works.

I’m leaning towards using their positive attitude to influence others, but I’m not confident about the pressure tactic. I hope I remember the right strategies!

I feel like assigning project roles could backfire if they're not ready for it. I definitely agree with involving them in design decisions, though.

I remember a practice question where we had to leverage supporters' influence. I think using their positive attitude to sway others makes sense, but I can't recall if assigning them roles was also a good idea.

I think involving supporters in project activities could be a good strategy, but I'm not sure about asking them to pressure skeptics. That feels a bit aggressive.

This is a good one. I think the key is to find ways to empower the supporters and get them more involved in the project. Answers B and D seem like the most effective strategies for that. I'll make sure to explain my reasoning clearly in the exam.

I'm a little confused by this question. There seem to be a lot of options, and I'm not sure which ones are the best strategies. I'll need to think it through carefully and maybe review my notes on stakeholder management before answering.

Okay, I think I've got this. The two correct answers are B and D - involving the supporters in project activities and using their positive attitude to influence others. That makes sense to me as a way to get them more invested in the project's success.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we need to engage the supporters, but I'm not sure if asking them to pressure the skeptics is the best approach. Maybe there's a more collaborative way to get them involved.
