    PMP · Question 50 · Task 13: Mentor relevant stakeholders

    A project manager has identified a junior team member with strong analytical skills and good project management potential. The team member has expressed interest in developing project management capabilities but lacks confidence in stakeholder interactions and has limited experience with project planning tools. What mentoring approach should the project manager take FIRST?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Assign the team member to lead a small, low-risk project to build experience

    B.

    Enroll the team member in formal project management certification training

    C.

    Create opportunities for the team member to observe and gradually participate in project management activities with supportive feedback

    D.

    Pair the team member with a senior project manager from another team for mentoring

    How to approach this question

    Effective mentoring provides gradual skill building opportunities with supportive feedback rather than immediate high-responsibility assignments or external training alone.

    Full Answer

    C.Create opportunities for the team member to observe and gradually participate in project management activities with supportive feedback✓ Correct
    Effective mentoring involves creating progressive learning opportunities where mentees can observe, participate gradually, and receive supportive feedback to build both skills and confidence.

    Common mistakes

    Students often choose immediate project leadership (A) or external training (B), missing the value of gradual skill building with direct mentoring support.
