Free PMI Project Management Professional Practice Question

Scheduling a one-on-one meeting with the team member is the most appropriate first step. This allows the project manager to gather more information about the team member's situation, cultural background, and any challenges they may be facing. By having an open and respectful conversation, the project manager can better understand the root cause of the issue and work with the team member to find a solution that accommodates their needs while ensuring project success. While setting clear expectations, providing cultural sensitivity training, and discussing the issue with the entire team may also be necessary, these actions should be taken after the project manager has a better understanding of the individual team member's situation.
