A project manager learns that some team members lack experience with a critical technology needed for an upcoming project. What should the project manager do to address this skill gap during the planning phase?
Arrange training sessions to develop the necessary skills
Assign the untrained members to the tasks anyway
Replace the team members with more skilled personnel
The project manager should arrange training for the team members to equip them with the required skills. Providing training during the planning phase helps ensure the project team can meet the project's demands. Replacing team members can be disruptive and costly. Ignoring the skill gap risks project failure, and assigning untrained members to tasks can lead to errors and delays.
