CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 276

A new project has been assigned to a project manager. In order to move forward with the project charter, which of the following should the project manager work with to define the success criteria for the initiative?

Answer options

• A. Lead architect
• B. Project sponsor
• C. Program manager
• D. Scrum master

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The project sponsor is the key stakeholder responsible for setting the direction and providing the necessary support for the project, which includes defining the success criteria. The other options, such as the lead architect, program manager, and scrum master, play important roles but do not have the authority to establish the overall success criteria as the project sponsor does.
