Why each option

After developing the scope of an IT governance program, an enterprise should first communicate the program to stakeholders to gain consensus for successful implementation.

Ainitiate the program using an implementation roadmap.

Initiating the program with an implementation roadmap comes after gaining stakeholder consensus on the scope and overall direction.

Bestablish initiatives for business and managers.

Establishing initiatives for business and managers is a subsequent step in the implementation phase, not the immediate action after defining scope.

Cacquire the resources that will be required.

Acquiring resources is necessary for implementation, but it should follow stakeholder consensus to ensure resources are aligned with agreed-upon objectives.

Dcommunicate the program to stakeholders to gain consensus.Correct

After defining the scope, communicating the IT governance program to stakeholders to gain consensus is the crucial next step because their understanding and buy-in are essential for successful adoption and effective implementation.
