PMI PMI-ACP Actual Questions

When plotting performance and dependencies on the product roadmap, the product manager should consider features, stages of development, technology and infrastructure, dependencies, and risks. These components are critical for understanding how the product will evolve over time, the technical requirements, how different parts of the system depend on each other, and the potential risks that may arise. This approach ensures that the team can manage dependencies effectively, mitigate risks, and deliver the product in line with business goals and timelines.

In an agile environment, conflicts are seen as opportunities for collaboration and finding the best solution. The project manager should help the team by restating the positions of the team members to clarify their viewpoints and identify common ground. This approach encourages active listening, fosters understanding, and helps the team focus on shared goals rather than individual positions. Once the commonalities are identified, the team can collaboratively find a resolution that benefits the project, leveraging diverse perspectives to improve the outcome.

Relying solely on the developers' experience with similar systems to define functionality can be limiting and potentially result in misaligned expectations with actual user needs. Effective Agile teams should focus on understanding and addressing the needs of end users, leveraging continuous feedback from customers, and engaging stakeholders directly. This ensures theproduct is built to meet real user expectations and can evolve as necessary based on user input. Instead of relying on previous experience, the team should be focused on co-creating value with customers through collaboration, feedback, and agile practices like user stories and regular testing.
