  • C.Allow the client ta determine how long the planning phase should last.
  • D.Ask the functional manager to work with the team to finalize planning and begin building the product.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When the client and functional manager request more features during a third planning meeting, the project manager should explain that more features can be planned in upcoming iterations and begin building the product. This aligns with agile's iterative approach—delivering value incrementally while capturing additional features in the backlog. Allowing the sponsor to determine planning duration (B) surrenders PM responsibility. Allowing the client to determine (C) similarly defers the decision. Asking the functional manager to finalize (D) delegates planning authority.
