    PMP · Question 07 · Task 7: Address and remove impediments, obstacles, and blockers for the team

    An agile development team reports during the daily stand-up that they cannot proceed with testing because the test environment is not available. The infrastructure team estimates it will take three more days to set up the environment, which will impact the sprint goal. What should the project manager do FIRST?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Add the delay to the risk register and inform the sponsor about the potential sprint goal impact

    B.

    Work with the infrastructure team to explore options for expediting the environment setup or finding alternative testing solutions

    C.

    Ask the development team to work on other user stories while waiting for the test environment

    D.

    Escalate to senior management to prioritize the infrastructure team's work

    How to approach this question

    Look for active impediment removal through collaboration and problem-solving rather than documentation, workarounds, or premature escalation.

    Full Answer

    B.Work with the infrastructure team to explore options for expediting the environment setup or finding alternative testing solutions✓ Correct
    Servant leaders prioritize removing impediments for their teams. This means actively collaborating with stakeholders to find solutions rather than just documenting issues or implementing workarounds.

    Common mistakes

    Students often choose workarounds (C) or escalation (D), missing the servant leader's responsibility to actively work on removing impediments through direct collaboration.
