ScrumStudy Exam SMC Topic 1 Question 75 Discussion

Actual exam question for ScrumStudy's SMC exam

Question #: 75
Topic #: 1

[All SMC Questions]

All of the following statements about Risk Communications are true, EXCEPT:

AThe Stakeholders should be continuously informed about risks, including the potential impact of these risks
and the plans for responding to each risk.

BThe Scrum Team may also discuss specific risks related to their Tasks with the Product Owner during
Daily Standup Meetings.

CThe Product Owner is responsible for the prioritization of risks and for communicating the prioritized list to
the Scrum Team.

DInformation related to risks is maintained and updated through the Risk Burndown Chart.
Because stakeholders have an interest in the project, it is important to communicate with them regarding risks.
Information provided to stakeholders related to risk should include potential impact and the plans for
responding to each risk. This communication is on-going and should occur in parallel with the four sequential
steps discussed thus far---risk identification, assessment, prioritization and mitigation. The Scrum Team may
also discuss specific risks related to their Tasks with the Scrum Master during Daily Standup Meetings. The
Product Owner is responsible for the prioritization of risks and for communicating the prioritized list to the
Scrum Team. An important tool which can be used for communicating information related to risks is the Risk
Burndown Chart.

Risk communication is no joke. Imagine trying to explain the Risk Burndown Chart to your grandparents. 'So, you see, the line goes down as we mitigate the risks...'

Wait, so we have to continuously inform stakeholders about risks? That's a lot of communication. I hope they have good attention spans.

The Risk Burndown Chart, huh? I wonder if that's as exciting as the Velocity Burndown Chart.

Hmm, I thought the Scrum Team discussed risks with the Product Owner during the Daily Standup. Looks like that's not the case.

Actually, the Product Owner is responsible for prioritizing risks and communicating them to the Scrum Team.

I'm pretty sure the answer is C. The Product Owner is responsible for prioritizing risks and communicating them to the Scrum Team, not the other way around.
