QuestionQ113

Delivery

An agile coach discovers that the team responsible for a major release is several months behind schedule. The marketing department does not know about the delay and is preparing to launch the marketing campaign and announce the release.

What should the agile coach do?

  • A Meet with the agile team lead to discuss ways to improve the team velocity and get back on track
  • B Use this as a learning opportunity and allow the team to handle the situation when the marketing campaign begins
  • C In the upcoming retrospective, discuss ways to improve sharing project status information
  • D Meet with the marketing stakeholders to explain that the team will miss the planned release date
Explanation

Affected marketing stakeholders need prompt, transparent communication that the planned release date will be missed so they can adjust the campaign and announcement. Addressing the schedule impact immediately prevents wasted effort and enables coordinated planning.
