PMP · Question 94 · Task 11: Engage and support virtual teams

A project manager is working on a project where team members are located in different countries with significant time zone differences. Important decisions are often made during meetings when only some team members can attend, leading to feelings of exclusion among remote team members. What should the project manager implement to address this issue?

Answer options:

A.

Schedule all decision-making meetings during overlapping business hours for all time zones

B.

Rotate meeting times so that different team members are excluded from different meetings

C.

Implement asynchronous decision-making processes that allow all team members to provide input

D.

Assign decision-making authority to team members in the most convenient time zone

How to approach this question

When time zone differences prevent inclusive decision-making, implement asynchronous processes that allow all team members to participate regardless of location.

Full Answer

C.Implement asynchronous decision-making processes that allow all team members to provide input✓ Correct
C
Global teams with significant time zone differences need asynchronous decision-making processes to ensure all team members can contribute to important decisions regardless of their location or time zone.

Common mistakes

Trying to force synchronous meetings across incompatible time zones, rotating exclusion, or creating unfair power structures based on location.
