Alex is managing an adaptive project and is considering increasing the length of iterations. Which of the following is a potential drawback of using longer iterations?
Slower response to changes in project requirements
Increased communication overhead with stakeholders
Higher frequency of planning meetings interrupting workflow
Greater risk of scope creep due to frequent changes
Longer iterations can lead to slower response to changes in project requirements because feedback and review cycles are less frequent. This means the team may not adapt to new information or stakeholder needs as quickly as with shorter iterations. The other options are not drawbacks of longer iterations: increased communication overhead with stakeholders is more likely with shorter iterations due to more frequent check-ins; higher frequency of planning meetings interrupting workflow is associated with shorter iterations since planning occurs at the start of each iteration; greater risk of scope creep due to frequent changes is less likely with longer iterations, as changes are introduced less frequently.
