Selected Answer: A
Collaborative Problem-Solving: By discussing the problem with the team, the project manager fosters an environment of collaboration. This approach enables the team to collectively brainstorm and find innovative solutions to integrate the new features despite the constraints. Team Empowerment: Allowing the team to be part of the decision-making process empowers them and can lead to higher motivation and commitment to finding workable solutions. Resource Optimization: Since the team is fully allocated and there is no budget for new resources, working together to reprioritize or find efficiencies within the current workload is crucial. This might involve reevaluating the project scope, adjusting timelines, or identifying non-critical tasks that can be postponed or removed. Transparency and Trust: This approach builds transparency and trust between the project manager and the team. By openly discussing the challenges and constraints, the project manager demonstrates respect for the team's expertise and workload.

All answers are terrible. Least terrible would be to "fire back" and get the resources necessary to implement the change. This will either stop the request or enable the team to deliver value.

I am really starting to wonder if these questions are from the actual exam. If so, that is scary. The correct response to a new request is having it run through the change control board...
