Correct Answer to Q#44: D

Answer and Explanations:

Answer A: Incorrect. Participative leadership is often called democratic leadership and involves soliciting the input of team members and peers. However, the responsibility of making the final decision rests with the participative leader.

Answer B: Incorrect. Autocratic leadership involves allowing leaders to make decisions alone without the input of others. Autocratic leaders possess total authority and impose their will on the team.

Answer C: Incorrect. Transformational leadership depends on high levels of communication from management to meet goals. Leaders motivate employees and enhance productivity and efficiency through communication and high visibility.

Answer D: Correct. Servant leadership is the practice of leading through service to the team, by focusing on understanding and addressing the needs and development of the team members in order to enable the highest possible team performance.

Question 44: In an effort to increase agile knowledge, traditional project managers of a company have been paired with scrum masters to observe them lead their teams.

What leadership approach have the scrum masters adopted?

A. Participative leadership
B. Autocratic leadership
C. Transformational leadership
D. Servant leadership

Correct Answer to Q#43: B

Explanations:

Answer A: Incorrect. The team and the relevant project stakeholders define the definition of done, which applies to every item in the backlog. The team, however, does not determine when a product or a product increment is complete.

Answer B: Correct. The product owner accepts the completed product increment in the iteration review meeting after reviewing the acceptance criteria and verifying the functionality.

Answer C: Incorrect. The sponsor can recommend product backlog items to the product owner, but a sponsor typically does not have the authority to accept or reject a product.

Answer D: Incorrect. The agile coach may facilitate the meeting where the product increment is reviewed. Accepting or rejecting the product, however, is not among the agile coach's responsibilities.

Correct Answer to Q#42: B

Team Evaluation, Individual Evaluation and Process Tailoring are all methods of soliciting feedback from your Agile project team members. Prototyping is a form of "Product" feedback, not a form of "Project Team" feedback.
