Answer: B
The project sponsor puts his/her name on a project to
emphasize its importance to the organization, and to ensure
the commitment and cooperation of management. Where the
development is both important, and affects the entire
organization, the sponsor must be of sufficient corporate
standing to require such cooperation. Therefore, a member of
the executive team is most appropriate. The manager of a
department may not command automatic support from peers, and
the IS manager and an independent consultant are
inappropriate sponsors of such a development.
