Explanation
A cross-functional digital task force is the best approach because large-scale digital transformation requires diverse expertise spanning IT, operations, finance, and strategy - no single person or body can provide that breadth. The CDO alone (A) lacks the cross-departmental authority and capacity to drive change across the whole organization. Separate individual initiatives (C) creates silos, misaligned priorities, and missed synergies - the opposite of a coherent programme. The governing body (D) sets direction and approves strategy but is not suited for hands-on programme definition and implementation; that is an operational, not a governance, function.
Memory tip: Think "Task Force = Task-Focused" - a dedicated, cross-functional team stays laser-focused on the transformation, unlike a solo executive (too narrow) or a governing board (too high-level).
