Question 51

Brian’s team has an agile way of thinking – they value people over processes. What can they be expected to typically focus on?
  • A Velocity, as opposed to direction
  • B Logic, as opposed to feelings
  • C Command, as opposed to communication
  • D Effectiveness, as opposed to efficiency
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is effectiveness, as opposed to efficiency. Techniques of leadership focus on effectiveness; efficiency is a focus of management techniques. The Agile methodology values leadership over management. The other responses are incorrect because they don’t represent “people over processes” in the best way. In addition, logic over feelings is not an agile approach, nor is command. Velocity represents the average points done in an iteration; it’s not a part of agile values.
