3. Correct Choice: 2


Justification: The project management team is a subset of the project team and is responsible for project management activities like initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, and closing the various project phases. This group can be called core, executive or leadership team. For smaller projects, the project management responsibilites can be shared by the entire team or administered solely by the project manager

 

 

I guess the answer should be C.

What say?

The correct answe is not C but 2.


Check PMBOK on Page number 215. It clearly states as follows:


The project management team is a subset of the project team and is responsible for the project management and leadership activities such as initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, and closing the various project phases. This group can also be referred to as the core, executive, or leadership team. For smaller projects, the project management responsibilities can be shared by the entire team or administered solely by the project manager.
 

Correct answer is 4

1.) A PM team can guide/mentor/lead you

2.) Project team includes PM and is responsible for many activities including planning,controlling,closing 

3.) True, PM team is included in Project Team 

4.) You cannot give Management responsibilties to entire team, PM and other SME should handle formal estimations, 

High level estimates and other details are sent by Team members but thats also true for large projects. A  PM would not ask a Junior Developer to gain formal approval of these activities from the sponser or customer.

If you have PMBOK ( I assume everyone who visits this website has a PMBOK), carefully read Page 215. PMBOK says that "For smaller projects, the project management responsibioites can be shared by the entire team or administered sololy by the project manager".


Thus, the correct answer is 2.


1) 3) 4) are talking about PM team, while 2) talking about whole project team.

I may not be right in this question but i just cleared PMP :) 

The correct answer is option No.2


The remaining all the options are true.
