D. The cross-functional team members work together to complete the activity. This approach leverages the diverse skills and expertise within a cross-functional team to tackle the complexity of the task. By collaborating closely, team members can identify and implement solutions more efficiently than working in isolation or waiting for external help. This method fosters innovation, accelerates problem-solving, and ensures that different perspectives are considered in addressing the complexity of the activity. It also aligns with agile principles, emphasizing teamwork, collaboration, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

Option B is better but can team members decide to bring in specialist. I think it needs to be decided by PM. That is why D is next better choice as cross-functional team member is expected to have more skill to solve the problem. If B is the answer then it should say PM instead of team members.

Every one selected D but apparently B look more suitable in this scenario. because If we have already cross-functional team working together and an activity become more complex need to complete quickly. in this case need specialist(subject meter expert). please correct me if I am wrong....

O Option D - having the cross-functional team members work together to complete the activity. This approach encourages collaboration, knowledge sharing, and leveraging the diverse skills and expertise of the team to tackle the complex activity effectively. By working together, the team members can brainstorm solutions, support each other, and collectively find the most efficient way to deliver the work in the shortest time possible.

Selected Answer: D
The cross-functional team members should work together to complete the activity. This approach promotes collaboration and cross-functional teamwork, which can help identify and address any complexities that arise during the iteration. The team can leverage each other's strengths and knowledge to solve the problem and complete the activity in the shortest time possible. Bringing in an external specialist or moving the work to the backlog may cause delays and disrupt the team's momentum.
