C - the sponsor! as business owner you sponsor and pay, highering, PM and support, and if anyone slows the project or become an obstacle, you as the sponsor will have to replace her/him/them to meet your timeline and increase the budget if an unexpected unforeseen additional costs come to suffer

Selected Answer: B
While the project manager (Option B) plays a crucial role in managing the project's execution, including planning, organizing, and controlling project activities, the responsibility for the overall success of the project and supporting the change throughout the organization typically falls to the program sponsor (Option C). The program sponsor holds a broader role, providing strategic guidance and leadership to ensure the successful implementation of the desired change. They have the authority and influence to drive change at an organizational level. The program sponsor acts as a champion for the change, secures necessary resources and support, and aligns the change with the organization's goals and objectives. the reason the responsibility fall on the PM is that not always a project or a program sponsor understand the full picture, it is the duty of the PM to guide closely the PS and enure that things are implemented. so things change from area to area.

The correct answer would be B. "Project manager" In a project environment, the Project Manager is typically responsible for the overall success of a change management project and supporting the change throughout the organization. The Project manager is responsible for ensuring that the change is implemented smoothly and effectively, and that it is adopted and sustained by all members of the organization. The Project Manager would be responsible for developing and implementing a change management plan, which outlines the actions and resources needed to successfully implement the change. They will also be responsible for identifying and assessing the impact of the change on different groups within the organization and Communicating the change to all stakeholders. Project Manager will also provide support and resources to help individuals and teams transition to the new way of working and monitoring the progress of the change and adjusting the change management plan as needed. - source: openai
