A project manager at Grayling Software is using an AI tool to help with 'Conflict Resolution'. The AI suggests that the PM should 'Smooth' over a disagreement between two developers to keep the project on schedule.

What is the correct mindset to apply?

  1. Escalate the disagreement to the developers' functional manager as the AI identified it as 'High Risk'.
  2. Ask the AI to draft the 'Smoothing' message to be sent to both developers via email.
  3. Reject the 'Smooth' approach and instead 'Collaborate' by meeting with the developers to solve the underlying problem.
  4. Follow the AI's advice to 'Smooth' the conflict because the schedule is the project's primary constraint, without revisiting the agreed prioritization criteria.
