Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: B
A. The executive committee typically consists of senior executives and managers who are responsible for overseeing specific areas of the organization's operations. While they may have decision-making authority in their respective areas, they are not typically accountable for governance and overall control of enterprise resources.
B. The board of directors is ultimately responsible for governance and overall control of enterprise resources. The board sets the organization's strategic direction, oversees management's performance, and ensures that the organization's resources are used effectively and ethically. They have the ultimate accountability for the organization's success and sustainability.
C. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is the highest-ranking executive in the organization and is responsible for the overall management and performance of the company. While the CEO plays a crucial role in setting the organization's direction and leading its operations, the ultimate accountability for governance and overall control of enterprise resources lies with the board of directors.
