easy · Project Management Professional Predictive (Plan-Driven)
An Ironvale Grid project manager is leading a predictive infrastructure upgrade. A senior stakeholder requests a 'Status Update' meeting to review PowerPoint slides of recent progress. The project manager realizes this stakeholder confused this with the upcoming 'Stage-Gate' meeting.
How should the project manager clarify the difference?
- Explain that the stage-gate is a decision point for project continuation, while status is for tracking performance
- Cancel the status meeting and tell the stakeholder to wait for the gate review
- Combine the two meetings to save time for the steering committee
- Inform the stakeholder that the project manager makes the 'Go' decision, not the committee, without revisiting the agreed prioritization criteria.
