In an agile team, some of the team members are coming forward to ask for more autonomy on the project.
What shouldthe project manager do in thissituation?
Correct Answer: D
Explanation
In an agile team, the project manager should foster a culture of self-organization and empowerment, where the team members are given the authority and responsibility to make decisions that affect their work. This can increase the team's motivation, creativity, and productivity, as well as reduce the need for micromanagement and bureaucracy. Discouraging the team members from asking for more autonomy, or delegating the decision-making to the team lead or the management team, can undermine the agile principles and values, and create dissatisfaction, confusion, or conflict among the team members.
