A project manager is overseeing a software development project when an unexpected regulatory change requires a significant budget increase and a shift in strategic direction. The project manager needs to secure formal approval for these changes from senior executives and department heads. Which of the following meeting types should the project manager schedule to make this decision?
A Project Steering Committee meeting is the correct choice because it is a decisive meeting where key stakeholders, such as senior executives, convene to make crucial decisions about a project's strategic direction, scope, and resource allocation. A stand-up meeting is a brief, daily sync-up for the project team. A brainstorming session is a collaborative meeting for generating ideas, not for formal approval from executives. A focus group is used to gather feedback and opinions from users or customers, not to make binding project decisions.
