Question 1

At the project level, you want productive workers when needed per your project schedule. However, keeping workers productive is a key goal at the enterprise, portfolio, and program levels. As a portfolio manager, I found that if an employee is idle for a month, it wipes out the profit from 10 other employees for an entire year. How do you accommodate your portfolio manager's request to keep three workers productive on your project, when you don't have them scheduled to work on activities until next month? What steps should you take to get these workers productive without harming your project budget?

Question 2

As the project manager, you are responsible for leading the team that makes decisions on your project. Most decisions are made at the project level, however some decisions may affect other areas of your organization. When should you get feedback from or pass the decision up to your program and/or portfolio manager? How would you format the parameters, options, and issues of the decision?
