You recently took over the assignment for a project. The project charter has been developed. What is an appropriate next step for you?

Develop the risk register.
Develop the project milestone schedule.
Develop management plans.
Get approval for the project management plan.

The correct answer is: Develop management plans.

After the project charter has been developed, the next appropriate step would be to develop management plans. This includes several important plans such as the scope management plan, schedule management plan, cost management plan, and communication management plan. These plans help to define and outline how the project will be executed, controlled, and monitored throughout its lifecycle. Developing the risk register (option A) and project milestone schedule (option B) are also important steps in the project management process, but they would come after the management plans have been developed. Getting approval for the project management plan (option D) is also important, but it is not the immediate next step as the plan still needs to be developed first. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate next step after the project charter has been developed.
