Once an IT governance framework has been defined, which of the following is the MOST effective approach to align IT to business objectives?

Answer options

• A. Auditing the alignment of IT to business objectives regularly
• B. Reviewing the return on investment of IT initiatives on a regular basis
• C. Establishing a cross business unit committee to prioritize IT investment
• D. Reporting IT investment and performance to senior management regularly

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, emphasizes the importance of collaboration across business units to ensure that IT investments are aligned with overall business priorities. While options A and D focus on oversight and reporting, and option B addresses financial aspects, they do not facilitate the necessary prioritization and alignment that a cross-business committee can provide.
