Question

According to PMI’s "Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct", project managers should exhibit all of the following behaviors EXCEPT: ​ a. honesty - understand the truth and act in a truthful manner b. fairness - make decisions and act impartially c. authority - exert economic and political power d. responsibility - take ownership for decisions

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": authority - exert economic and political power .

Explanation:

The Project Management Institute (PMI) establishes in its "Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct" that there are four milestones important to consider for every project manager: honesty, responsibility, respect, and fairness. According to the PMI, those values drive not only the ethical life in the managerial but the real world, where the best outcome is the most ethical.

In that sense, "authority" has nothing to do with the PMI's Code of Ethics.
