1. PMP EXAM
SAMPLE Q & A

2. You are facilitating a meeting with your project team to develop the team charter. At the start of the meeting, a
team member states, "I don't understand the importance of this meeting. We are all professionals, and this isn't
our first project working together. Wouldn't our time be better spent getting an early start on project
execution?" The body language of the other team members suggests that they agree with the comments.
How should you respond to the team member?
A. As long as everyone is in agreement, then let's skip the team charter and get ahead of schedule
B. Let's use the team charter from our last project as a starting point and then update it as necessary
C. The team charter is required by the project management office (PMO) for all projects
D. The team charter will eliminate any potential conflicts which will improve our productivity
HINT: What is the best way to gain the commitment of the project team for the guidelines in the team charter in
this scenario?
Question

3. The correct answer is B.
The team charter establishes clear expectations regarding acceptable behavior by the project team members.
An early commitment to clear guidelines decreases misunderstandings and increases productivity. The
question indicates that the project team has worked together on previous projects.
If the team charter from the last project was effective, it serves as a good starting point for use on the current
project. It is essential that the project manager gain the commitment of the project team for the guidelines
established by the team charter, and if using the previous team charter as a template helps gain the
commitment of the project team, then it is a worthwhile compromise.
Of the available choices, using the previous team charter as a starting point provides the best opportunity to
gain the commitment of the project team.
