Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 180

A program management team is invited to a company's annual strategy planning session. The CEO discusses the mission and vision of the organization, and how the strategic plan will create opportunities to fulfill them.
How can the program manager use the company's vision to establish a program?

Answer options

• A. Define the program and component projects to enable the fulfillment of strategic goals.
• B. Set the priority matrix, and map the projects' priorities that will be included in the program.
• C. Define the program roadmap, and highlight the individual projects' benefits.
• D. Identify program benefits that will enable the fulfillment of strategic goals.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because identifying program benefits directly aligns with fulfilling strategic goals as outlined by the company's vision. Options A and C focus more on structuring and outlining projects rather than directly connecting to the strategic goals. Option B involves prioritization, which is less about aligning with the vision and more about project management logistics.
