Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rugby approach is a project management method in which all team members work together simultaneously to achieve a common goal, similar to a rugby team passing the ball back and forth to move down the field. In this case, Fred and his team members from other functional areas are evaluating a new product proposal and working together toward reaching a conclusion, which aligns with the rugby approach.
