A project manager is leading a global team that they have worked with in the past and has a high level of trust with them. The team is located in different countries and time zones and will need decisions in a timely manner. In order to ensure that the project runs smoothly across the team, how should the project manager approach delegation?
- A.Delegate certain authorities and share information to allow fair decision-making.
- B.Delegate most authorities and control the authority by withholding important information.
- ✓ Correct C.Delegate most authorities and share information to allow fair decision-making.
- D.Delegate certain authorities and control the authority by withholding important information.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C. The team is trusted, distributed across time zones, and needs to make quick decisions. Delegating most authority and sharing information enables fair, timely decisions without waiting for the project manager. Delegating only certain authority (A) limits the team's speed, and withholding information (B, D) undermines good decisions.
