PMP · Question 58 · Task 2: Manage communications
A project manager is leading a software development project where the client has requested detailed progress reports every week.

Answer options:
Eliminate the weekly reports to maximize development team productivity
Work with both parties to identify the essential information needed and streamline the reporting process
Continue with the current reporting requirements since the client is paying for the project
Assign a dedicated person to handle all reporting activities
