The project manager has noticed that meeting attendance rates are declining. Regular
attendees prefer to talk about the past or upcoming weekend as opposed to reporting on
project updates. Which of the following shows how the project manager should respond?
A.
Establish ground rules, distribute an agenda, and use a facilitator.
B.
Take no action. Team bonding is important. Those that cannot attend are probably
attending more important meetings as this project is not the only initiative within the
organization.
C.
Change the meeting format to be a daily stand-up of no longer than 15 minutes.
D.
Escalate non attendance to functional line managers. Cut off non-related discussions.
