 In an agile project, the servant leader plays a crucial role in ensuring that the team understands and adheres to the project’s rules and guidelines. In this case, where there is a high risk of a team member disclosing confidential project details, the servant leader should include a restriction against such disclosure as a ground rule. This rule should be reviewed at the end of every iteration to ensure that all team members are familiar with it and understand its importance.

This team should consist of quality assurance subject matter experts (SMEs) who have experience in this type of analysis. The team will then perform a cause-and-effect analysis to identify the root cause of the quality problem. Once the root cause is identified, the team can develop and implement a solution to address the issue, thereby improving the quality of the project deliverables. References: PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP)® Examination Content Outline1, PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)® Examination Content Outline2.
