The project is in the planning process group when three stakeholders come to the Project Manager asking for information on the company’s new project management methodology. They want to know from where it came from and why it is different from the way they currently y manage projects. These stakeholders are also the friend of the Project Manager, and the entire group has worked together for years. The project is using some new terms like “corrective action” that are making some stakeholders nervous, as they are unsure whether the way the project will be managed is going to change along with the new terms. What should the Project manager do?

a) Advice the stakeholders that she’ll keep them in the communication loop for the project.
b) Supply a list of new terms and their definitions.
c) Notify the Project management Office (PMO)
d) Make sure she maintains her authority as a Project Manager even the stakeholders are her friends.
