Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: A
A. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is the highest-ranking officer in an organization and is responsible for the overall management and strategic direction of the enterprise. The CEO holds the ultimate authority and decision-making power in the organization.
B. The Board of Directors is a group of individuals elected by the shareholders to oversee the management of the organization. While the Board plays a crucial role in governance and decision-making, the highest-ranking officer responsible for the total management of the enterprise is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
C. The Program Manager is responsible for overseeing and managing specific programs within the organization, but they do not hold the highest-ranking position charged with the total management of the enterprise. The CEO, as the top executive, is ultimately responsible for the overall management and direction of the organization.
