Divya Menon's project at Maple Ridge Corp follows an adaptive framework. The communication plan specifies daily stand-ups and bi-weekly retrospectives. A team member suggests replacing stand-ups with a status dashboard. How should Divya respond?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Discuss with the team whether the change aligns with the communication strategy and framework principles

Explanation

Following a planned strategy includes evaluating proposed changes collaboratively. Divya should facilitate discussion about whether the change maintains the intent of the communication framework (transparency, collaboration) while potentially improving efficiency.

**Why not A:** Approving the change immediately without team discussion bypasses the collaborative evaluation process. Even in adaptive frameworks, changes to established practices should be discussed with the team to ensure they align with the framework's principles and goals.

**Why not C:** Rejecting the suggestion outright because the plan is approved is too rigid, especially for an adaptive framework. Adaptive approaches value continuous improvement and team input, so suggestions for process changes should be openly discussed and evaluated.

**Why not D:** Implementing both the dashboard and stand-ups simultaneously adds overhead without addressing whether either approach effectively serves the communication strategy. The team should evaluate which approach best meets their needs rather than simply layering additional tools.
