Which 2 individuals should the Facilitator invite to participate in the Workshop?

The project is now in the second week of Timebox C. This is the final Timebox of Project Increment 1 and is scheduled to take one month. The plan is to open Hoy Hall to the public at the end of this Increment. A Must Have requirement of Timebox C is the implementation of a hotel reservation system.

At the Daily Stand-up, the Software Developer working on the reservation system reported that the framework for the system is now complete and ready for content.

However, this work cannot progress further due to a disagreement over the content. The Marketing Director insists the system is to hold professional photos and video tours of the facilities and grounds. These require a lot of storage space and regular updates. The IT Operations Manager insists the system is to take less than 5GB of storage space on the company server and require minimal maintenance.

The Team Leader has arranged a Facilitated Workshop to discuss the content and agree the way forward.

Remember to limit your answers to the number of selections requested in each question.

Answer: DE

Explanation:

The Facilitator should invite the following two individuals to participate in the Workshop:

D. IT Operations Manager (Solution Development Team)

E. Marketing Director (Business Visionary) The rationale for this selection is that the disagreement is between the Marketing Director, who wants the reservation system to have professional photos and video tours (which impacts how the system will be used by potential customers and affects marketing strategy), and the IT Operations Manager, who is concerned with the system’s technical limitations and maintenance. Both of these individuals are key to resolving the issue at hand, as they represent the conflicting requirements that need to be reconciled for the project to move forward.
