A program manager is presenting the program charter to the steering committee for approval. To best justify the program's investment and secure authorization, which element of the charter should be emphasized?
The resource allocation plan for the program management office.
A comprehensive register of all identified program risks.
A detailed breakdown of all constituent project schedules.
The program's expected benefits and alignment with strategic objectives.
The primary purpose of the program charter is to formally authorize the program by documenting its justification and high-level objectives in relation to a business need and identified strategic benefits. Emphasizing the expected benefits and how they align with the organization's strategy directly addresses the value proposition and return on investment, which are the main concerns of executive leadership when approving a program. While detailed project schedules, a full risk register, and resource plans are important program artifacts, they are typically developed more fully after the program has been authorized based on its strategic merit and expected benefits.
