Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The kick-off meeting is used as both a functional meeting to discuss execution and as a team morale-building exercise, which means that it is an effective form of communication. The kick-off meeting does act as a means of communication by communicating to the team that adequate planning has been done to begin execution. The kick-off meeting is completed after enough planning has been done to start project execution and not at the beginning of project initiation. The kick-off meeting does not begin the process of project closure. PCM10.1.261
