Exam PMI-ACP topic 1 question 141 discussion

A is make sense. Research shows how important it is to pause and acknowledge team's progress. Such reflection improves employee engagement and retention, the ability and motivation to persevere, and the likelihood of long-term success. https://pamela-meyer.com/best-practices-for-celebrating-agile-success-and-being-more-agile/

A - Correct From PMI’s Agile Practice Guide, Page 37: “Celebrate team successes and support and bridge building activities with external groups. Create upward spirals of appreciation and good will for increased collaboration”

A. Work with the team to determine points at which to celebrate its work Explanation: Motivation: Celebrating milestones and achievements can significantly boost team morale and motivation, making the work feel more rewarding and less monotonous. Recognition: Recognizing the team's efforts and accomplishments helps in acknowledging their hard work, which can reinvigorate their interest and engagement. Breaks the Monotony: Establishing celebration points provides a sense of progress and completion, breaking the continuous cycle of work with no visible end. Team Spirit: Celebrations can foster a sense of camaraderie and team spirit, enhancing overall team dynamics and collaboration.

B. Team event: While a break can be helpful, it only provides temporary relief. It doesn't address the underlying issue of the endless workload and might not be relevant if the team prioritizes celebrating their work within the project itself. C. Increase WIP: Increasing WIP might improve throughput but would likely worsen the team's feeling of being overwhelmed and could lead to bottlenecks and context switching. D. Reduce WIP: This could help manage flow and reduce stress, but without addressing the cause of demotivation, it might not fully re-engage the team in the long run.

Don't know the right answer. Logically: A = might be correct. It could help to get the team interested in the work C = might be correct. It is an escape from the comfort zone and will challenge the team to finish the work earlier (they could see the end) B = Why correct? The team can self-organize an event (if it is the solution) D = doesn't have a sense
