The project manager should describe to the team members how specific tools and techniques can be used to finish on time, as this will help them understand the rationale behind the rigorous process and how it can benefit the project. This will also demonstrate the project manager's respect for the team's expertise and autonomy, and foster a collaborative and supportive environment. The other options are not as effective or appropriate as describing the tools and techniques to the team. Crashing the project schedule and asking the team to work overtime may increase the risk of errors, burnout, and resentment. Motivating the team by offering incentives may not address the root cause of the resistance, and may create a sense of coercion or manipulation. Convincing the team to use a specific methodology may not be feasible or suitable for the project, and may undermine the team's self-organization and creativity. References:
