Exam PMP topic 1 question 56 discussion

i chose B but ChatGPT says it's C. Limiting the work in progress (WIP) is a key principle of Agile and Kanban methodologies. By reducing the number of items the team is actively working on, the team can improve focus, better manage priorities, and increase the likelihood of successfully completing tasks. This approach is particularly beneficial when dealing with unclear requirements, as it allows the team to concentrate efforts on a smaller set of tasks, leading to better understanding and quality of work.

Here the keyword is unclear requirement D is a not a first step when whole team is not able to understand the requirement. A, B are useful when there is a problem of overwhelming work Only C is the correct option, Backlog refinement helps clarify requirements by involving the product owner, stakeholders, and development team.

The Answer is B

Given the situation where the team is struggling due to unclear requirements and inability to complete iterations successfully, the most appropriate action for the project leader would be: B. Recommend that the product owner reviews the backlog refinement processes. Option C (Limiting work in progress) is generally a good practice in agile to improve focus, but it might not directly solve the problem of unclear requirements unless the overwhelming work in progress is exacerbating the issue.

"Unclear requirements" is the key

I think the keyword is 'unclear requirements', C does not solve the root cause but B

B. Recommend that the product owner reviews the backlog refinement processes

ChatGPC also chooses B. Unclear requirements can only be resolved by requirement clarification.

B. Backlog might need to be refined/to understand the DOR and/or DOD

Requirement clarification can not be Done by limiting WIP. It's product owners jobs to refine the product backlog. C cannot be the right answer.

I cannot understand how could C be the correct answer! The key words in the scenario is about unclear refinements, I would think there needs to be to refine the requirement on the backlog.

option B becouse the team suffring with lack of information , woundring why option C is correct even though after the break same issue still exist.

Product owner should refine the requirement on the backlog to help the team member to have clarify on the requirement- Will go with option B

B for me since the issue is related to the requirement that are not clear enough for the team to perform the requested work

Limiting the WIP will not solve the problem of unclear requirements. The backlog should be refined.

if WIP is limited but backlog refinement is not well done the team will still suffer delays

If 100% of the vote is for B (backlog refinement) - how is the correct answer, D? Is that in error @Examtopics?
