According to the PMBOK Guide, the project manager should use a collaborative or problem-solving approach to handle conflicts, as it results in a win-win situation and enhances the project performance1. The project manager should also communicate with the team members and involve them in the decision-making process, as it fosters trust and commitment2. Therefore, the best option is to meet the team member and try to plan a course of action together. Option A is incorrect because guiding the team member on how to resolve the conflict may not address the root cause of the conflict or the impact on the project schedule. Option B is incorrect because analyzing the project schedule and looking for alternatives may not consider the team member’s perspective or input. Option C is incorrect because performing crashing and/or fast tracking of the schedule may not resolve the conflict or may introduce new risks or issues to the project. References: 1: PMBOK Guide, 6th edition, section 9.5.2.1, p. 363 2: PMBOK Guide, 6th edition, section 9.4.2.3, p. 356
