ProcessSchedulePlanningAgile

The project leader for an agile team has discovered that a certain team member has been struggling with an impediment that is hindering the team's progress. The project is now at risk of completing later than expected. What should the project leader do?

  • A.Identify the impediment during the retrospective
  • B.Escalate the impediment and associated risks to the business sponsor.
  • ✓ Correct C.Identify the impediment and associated risks at the daily standup.
  • D.Report the impediment to the functional manager.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

When a team member is struggling with an impediment that puts the project at risk of late completion, the project leader should identify the impediment and associated risks at the daily standup. The standup surfaces blockers for immediate team attention. Identifying during retrospective (A) delays action. Escalating to the sponsor (B) bypasses team-level resolution. Reporting to the functional manager (D) is outside the agile team structure.
