It identifies strengths and weaknesses of the organization, regardless of the specific project or the general business area.

It is a technique that examines the project from each of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) perspectives to increase the breadth of identified risks by including internally generated risks.

It identifies any opportunities for the project that arise from organizational strengths, and any threats arising from organizational weaknesses.

It examines the degree to which organizational strengths offset threats, as well as identifies opportunities that may serve to overcome weaknesses.

As an output of the Monitor Risks process, an updated risk register generally includes some or all of the following (3 answers are needed)

A decision tree is a diagramming and calculation technique for evaluating the implications of a chain of multiple options in the presence of uncertainty

Decision tree analysis is a risk analysis tool that can be used to choose the most appropriate responses.

When tailoring processes for Project Stakeholder Management, you should consider all of these EXCEPT :

Complexity of stakeholder relationships.

To increase the chances of achieving project success, the project manager should do all of the following EXCEPT:

During a public hearing regarding your company's proposed state-of-the- art water of the tower, a highly interested resident of the area challenges you: "Would you have this thing built in your own backyard?" Your best answer can begin by saying :

Given that the experts provided ample information. That the proposed location is the most suitable. I would be pleased to have this state-of the art water tower as a neighbor.

Given that you are not listed in the stakeholder register, I cannot take your concerns seriously.

I am sorry that you appear to dislike having this water tower as your neighbor. We will look for another location for it.

The relationships of processes within and between the Project Management Process Groups are iterative.

Managing project performance and changes to the project activities .

Project Scope Management includes all of the following EXCEPT:

Projects and project management are integrative nature, with most tasks involving more than one Knowledge Area.

Scope can refer to product scope (the features and functions that characterize a product, service, or result), or to project scope (the work performed to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions).

Project life cycles range along a continuum from predictive to adaptive or agile. In a life cycle that uses a predictive approach, the project deliverables are defined at the beginning of the project and any changes to the scope are progressively managed In an adaptive or agile approach, the deliverables are developed over multiple iterations where a detailed scope is defined and approved for each iteration when it begins.

Completion of the project scope is measured against the project management plan. Completion of the product scope is measured against the product requirements.

Project Schedule Management includes all of the following EXCEPT:

Project managers may need to be familiar with sampling, including attribute sampling (the result either conforms or does not conform) and variable sampling (the result is rated on a continuous scale that measures the degree of conformity).

Project scheduling provides a detailed plan that represents how and when the project will deliver the products, services, and results defined in the project scope.

The project schedule is used as a tool for communication, managing stakeholder expectations, and a basis for performance reporting.

When possible, the detailed project schedule should remain flexible throughout the project to adjust for knowledge gained, increased understanding of the risk, and value-added activities .

Project Cost Management includes all of the following EXCEPT:

Measuring and monitoring progress and taking appropriate action.

Project Cost Management is primarily concerned with the cost of the resources needed to complete project activities, but it should also consider the effect of project decisions on the subsequent recurring cost of using, maintaining, and supporting project deliverables.

Different stakeholders will measure project costs m different ways and at different times. Stakeholder requirements for managing costs should be considered explicitly.

Predicting and analyzing the prospective financial performance of the project’s product may be performed outside the project, or it may be part of Project Cost Management.

The project life cycle is best defined as :

The series of phases that a project passes through from its start to completion.

The continuum of a project life cycle.

The phases that a product or service passes through from its start to its completion.

The various ways requirements and plans are brought from a project charter to completion.

The people, groups, or organizations that could impact or be impacted by a decision, activity, or outcome of the project.

The project engineers who design and construct the project.

The organization’s corporate attorneys.

The individuals or agencies that control contingency funds and their disbursement through the project management office (PMO).

Is calculated by multiplying the probability of the occurrence of a risk times its impact (numerical scale) on an objective (e.g., cost, time, scope, or quality) if it were to occur.

Is the sum of squares of the scale values assigned to the estimates of probability and impact?

Cannot be used to determine whether a risk is considered low, moderate, or high.

Is a commonly used technique for risk avoidance?

The primary output of the Identify Risks process is the :

Expected monetary value of the risk events.

The key processes of Project Risk Management are:

Plan Risk Management, Identify Risks, Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis, Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis, Plan Risk Responses, Implement Risk Responses, and Monitor Risks.

Plan Risk Management, Identify Risks, Assess Risks, Mitigate Risks, Transfer Risks, and Document Outcomes.

Identify Risks, Plan Risk Management, Evaluate Risks, Develop Risk Responses, Mitigate Risks, and Document Results.

Identify Risks, Perform Qualitative Risk Validation, Perform Quantitative Impact Assessment, and Develop Risk Response Strategies, Document Response Strategies, and Monitor Risk Responses.

Monitor Communications is the process of :

Ensuring that the information needs of the project stakeholders are met throughout the entire project life cycle.

Ensuring that information is provided on a need-to-know basis only to avoid unnecessary confusion and possible conflicts. 1

Providing all project information to all project stakeholders to enhance full buy-in regarding project requirements.

Securing and guarding any negative information related to project performance throughout the entire project life cycle to ensure that the project team can continue working on the project with minimal disruption .

Select all that apply for the following: Techniques and considerations for effective communications management generally include:

Meeting management techniques, such as preparing an agenda and dealing with conflicts.

Conflict management for building consensus and overcoming obstacles.

Listening techniques, such as listening actively and removal of barriers that adversely affect comprehension.

Providing a more comfortable environment in project conference rooms to strengthen project team cohesion.

All of the following are information management and distribution tools

Electronic communications management.
