Quill Digital's 'Data Analytics' team has reached its WIP limit of 10 items. A senior executive demands that a 'small' new reporting feature be started immediately for an afternoon meeting.
What is the project manager's best response?
- Add the feature to the current sprint backlog and assign it to the lead dev, before confirming the relevant stakeholders agree.
- Advise the executive that the feature can only be started if another item is moved back to the backlog to respect the WIP limit.
- Direct the developers to start the new feature as a 'special case' bypass.
- Escalate the executive's interference to the PMO to protect the team.
