During project execution, a key stakeholder requests frequent updates on project progress, which are not included in the current communication plan. What should the project manager do?
Politely inform the stakeholder that frequent updates are not possible.
Ignore the request and continue with the current communication plan.
Assess the impact of the request and follow the change management process.
Update the communication plan to include the stakeholder's request.
The project manager should assess the impact of the stakeholder's request and follow the change management process to update the communication plan if necessary. This approach ensures that all changes are properly evaluated, documented, and approved, maintaining control over the project's communications. Simply updating the communication plan without following the formal process can lead to unmanaged changes. Informing the stakeholder that the updates are not possible may harm the relationship, and ignoring the request is inappropriate and unprofessional.
