In the first meeting with a new project manager, a stakeholder complains about not receiving periodic reports. What should the project manager do first?

The correct answer is to meet the stakeholder to clarify their expectations and update the stakeholder engagement plan. This is the most appropriate first step because it addresses the immediate concern by gathering more information directly from the source. Understanding the stakeholder's specific needs and expectations is crucial before taking any action. Once clarified, updating the stakeholder engagement plan ensures that future communication aligns with these expectations and is formally documented. Updating the project management plan immediately without understanding the full context is premature. Inviting the stakeholder to future meetings might be a solution, but it doesn't address the underlying issue of why reports weren't received or if that's even the best solution for their needs. Adding the stakeholder's information to reports is also premature without understanding their specific requirements.
