Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Identifying and analyzing stakeholders' needs allows the team to determine and abide by the appropriate level of engagement for each stakeholder group. A project manager does not assign project team members to stakeholders. The project sponsor does not allocate project resources. Although a project exists in a matrix organization or a functional organization, the project manager does not design either. PSM13.4.152
