Answer 11
Correct Choice:
A
Explanation:
In a functional organization, the project team members have dual reporting to two bosses – the project manager and the functional manager.
In a weak matrix organization, the power rests with the functional manager.
In a balanced matrix organization, the power is shared between the functional manager and the project manager. A projectized organization is grouped by projects and the project manager has complete control on the project and its team.
A Tight matrix organization refers to co-locating the project team and has nothing to do with a matrix organization.
Therefore, a project manager would find it difficult to drive team development in a weak matrix organization.
Answer 12
Correct Choice:
A
Explanation:
Number of communication channels with “n” members = n*(n-1)/2

With the addition of the quality professional as a member of the project team, the communication channels increase to 26*25/2 = 325.
Therefore, the additional channels as a result of the change, that is, 325-300 = 25.
