Explanation:
Project communications are the main output of the Manage Communications process. This is the place for updated earned value information such as the estimate at complete.
Explanation:
In the communication model, it is the sender that encodes, and the receiver decodes the message.
Explanation:
Push communication is communication that is pushed out (think bulk email), but the drawback is that there is no reliable confirmation by the receiver that it was received or understood.
Explanation:
Earned value analysis is a communication tool, and it's all about how the project is doing against the plan. 'A' is incorrect because "success" involves more than good earned value.
Explanation:
Lessons learned focus on variances from the plan and what would be done differently in the future in order to avoid those variances.
Explanation:
Marie is practicing good listening skills to make sure she communicates well with her customers.
Explanation:
Each issue should be assigned to an owner and be assigned a target completion date. 'A' is incorrect since a project could be closed (successfully) and still have outstanding issues. Sometimes the issues are out of the project manager's control. 'B' is incorrect since the issue log is not for the stakeholders — it is for the project manager to use to manage issues. 'D` is incorrect because issues are managed within the context of a project. If you were even considering creating a separate project to manage issues, your project is probably beyond hope.
Explanation:
Within the communication model, acknowledgment only indicates confirmation of receipt. It does not mean that the receiver understood the message or agreed with the message.
Explanation:
Face-to-face communication is the most effective means of resolving conflict. This fits an overall theme that direct, clear, and personal communication is favored by project managers.
Explanation:
The WPI is the main output of Monitor Communications. It provides information on how communication is performing compared to the plan.
Explanation:
Even if you didn't memorize all of the inputs, tools, and outputs, it may have been intuitive to you that the issue log was tied to the monitoring and controlling process here. It is one of the documents used as an input into Monitor Communications.
