Management introduced a new internal process that adds little value and is affecting project deliverables. What should the project manager do?

The project manager's role includes protecting the project from unnecessary constraints and ensuring project success. If a new process adds little value and negatively impacts deliverables, the project manager should address it directly. Negotiating with management to change the required process is the most appropriate action because it seeks a solution that benefits the project and the organization. Assigning a team member to focus solely on compliance diverts resources without solving the underlying problem. Insisting the team follows the process without delay is unrealistic if the process itself is inefficient. Discussing with the team and trying to persuade them doesn't resolve the process's inherent flaws or its negative impact on deliverables.
