PRINCE2F People: organizations, teams, and leadership Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are responsibilities of the Project Manager?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse the Project Manager's operational responsibilities (like preparing reports and daily management) with the Project Board's governance duties (like chairing meetings and approving plans), leading them to select options that sound plausible but are actually Board-level tasks.
