多国籍プロジェクトでは、関係者は異なるタイムゾーンにいます。プロジェクト マネージャーは、関係者と定期的にプロジェクト更新会議を開きます。しかし、プロジェクト更新会議に一度も出席したことがない関係者のグループは、プロジェクトについてほとんど知らないとプロジェクト スポンサーに不満を抱いています。
プロジェクトマネージャーは何をすべきでしょうか?
正解:A
The project manager should address the communication needs of all stakeholders and ensure that they are satisfied with the level and frequency of information they receive. The best way to do this is to discuss the issue with all stakeholders and work on a communications management plan that defines the communication requirements, methods, formats, frequency, and responsibilities for each stakeholder group. This will help to avoid misunderstandings, conflicts, and complaints in the future. Recording the meeting and sharing it with the stakeholders who missed it (option C) is a good practice, but it does not solve the root cause of the problem.
Ensuring that the stakeholders who are complaining are present for the next meeting (option B) or changing the meeting time to their time zone (option D) are not feasible or fair solutions, as they may create inconvenience or dissatisfaction for other stakeholders. The project manager should consider the time zones of all stakeholders and try to find a suitable time that works for most of them, or use alternative communication methods such as email, video, or audio recordings.
