Exam PMI-ACP topic 1 question 267 discussion

Maintain Team Velocity: By asking to be relieved of project tasks, the developer ensures that the team’s velocity is not negatively impacted. This allows the team to continue meeting their commitments without the burden of an overextended team member. Focus on Priorities: This approach allows the developer to focus on the large corporate initiative without compromising the productivity and goals of the other project. Effective Resource Management: It helps in managing resources effectively by reallocating tasks to other team members who can handle them without being overburdened. Transparency and Communication: This action demonstrates transparency and proactive communication, ensuring that both project teams are aware of the developer’s capacity and can plan accordingly. Avoid Burnout: It helps in preventing burnout by not overloading the developer with too many responsibilities, which can lead to decreased performance and morale.

option A suggests trying to balance commitments, it does not address the potential negative impact on the team's productivity

Option A (Worked as planned to meet the team's commitments and participated in other events as time permitted) may not address the negative impact on team productivity caused by the developer's involvement in the corporate initiative. Option B (Worked extensively on the corporate initiative in order to inform the team of that effort) might provide information but may not be the best approach if it hampers the team's ability to meet its commitments. Option D (Have not participated in any initiative that could take focus away from the team’s project and goals) may be a valid approach if the corporate initiative is not directly related to the team's project and goals. However, if the developer is required to be involved, open communication about the impact and seeking relief from tasks is a more proactive and collaborative approach.

A = correct
