A project manager is leading a project to develop a new mobile app. The product owner expects the app to have a wide range of features, while the development team has expressed concerns about the timeline and technical feasibility. The project sponsor wants the app to be released as soon as possible to beat a competitor. The PM needs to align these conflicting expectations. What is the most effective approach?

Let the development team decide the timeline and features, as they have the technical expertise.

Facilitate a prioritization workshop with the product owner, development team, and sponsor to agree on a minimum viable product (MVP) and a realistic timeline.

Ask the product owner to reduce the feature set to what the development team says is feasible, ignoring the sponsor's timeline.

Prioritize the sponsor's request for a fast release and instruct the development team to cut features to meet the deadline.

During the early phase of a project, the project manager wants to ensure that no important stakeholder is overlooked. Which combination of inputs is most effective for identifying stakeholders?

Stakeholder engagement plan, issue log, and change requests

Project management plan, work performance data, and organizational process assets

Project scope statement, risk register, and lessons learned register

Project charter, organizational process assets, and expert judgment

What is the primary output of the Manage Stakeholder Engagement process?

Project charter and scope statement

A project manager is leading a product development project. The marketing team expects the product to launch in Q3 to align with a major trade show, but the engineering team has stated that a Q3 launch would require cutting essential quality testing. The project sponsor has not expressed a preference. What should the PM do to align stakeholder expectations with project objectives?

Ask the sponsor to make the final decision on the launch date.

Prioritize the marketing team's request because the trade show is a significant revenue opportunity.

Facilitate a meeting between marketing and engineering to discuss the trade-off and reach a consensus on a realistic launch date.

Decide on a Q4 launch date without consulting the teams to avoid conflict.
