2 The sponsor for a project you have been managing sends you an e-mail that he would like to make a small change to the project. What is your response and why? I lead a project team whose goal is to finish the work by the deadline. My first response is to request a clear explanation of the changes from the sponsor, and then respond appropriately when they ask to begin a minor change to the project. I'll then contact my team to discuss the next steps and the impact the change will have on the project's progress. We will carefully consider both the positive and negative consequences before making any decisions. In addition, I'll keep an eye out for any violations of the project's budget or scope constraints. Finally, I'll accept the sponsors' proposal and work to improve communication with partisan members about the proposed changes. In your own opinion, describe how a WBS and a schedule work together. A WBS deconstructs the work into its component parts, giving us a better understanding of the entire work process and the components that are required to finish it (Ding et al., 2019). As a result, when we understand a WBS's functions, we can say that it serves as a guiding factor, especially when combined with a work schedule, to implement the best method for adhering to a deadline and to have a better understanding of the importance of constraints and tradeoffs, especially when we consider a project.
