Explanation
Administration (C) is correct because administrators - such as CEOs, COOs, and department managers - are the operational leaders tasked with translating an organization's mission into concrete strategic plans, policies, and resource allocation decisions.
Board of Trustees (A) is a distractor because while the board approves and provides governance oversight of the strategic plan, they do not develop it - that operational work falls to administration. Medical Staff (B) are primarily responsible for patient care quality and clinical standards, not organizational strategic planning.
Memory tip: Think of it this way - the Board blesses the plan, Administration builds the plan, and Medical Staff executes clinical care. The question asks who develops it, which is always the middle layer: Administration.
