• Chose A1

  The project team was appropriately proactive in developing the schedule while the project manager was temporarily unavailable. The project manager should not discard that work or assume that the team acted improperly. Upon returning, the project manager should review the nearly completed schedule and ensure that it is aligned with the approved scope, shared project vision, objectives, dependencies, resource requirements, and other integrated planning elements before it is finalized or baselined. Team empowerment should be preserved, while the project manager provides integration and alignment.
