From ChatGPT: The correct answer is: A. Meet with stakeholders as a group to understand the current state. Here's why: The question highlights a misalignment between documented and actual processes, so the first step is to understand what’s really happening today. Meeting with stakeholders as a group helps the BA gather a holistic view, identify discrepancies, and ensure all voices are heard regarding the current state.

Selected Answer: C
The BA should first A. Meet with stakeholders as a group to understand the current state. It's crucial to understand the as-is process before attempting to define the to-be process. Since the documented process differs from the actual process used by the sales team, the BA needs to gather information directly from the source: the sales team and other relevant stakeholders.
