Explanation
Prior to presenting to the steering committee, the portfolio manager should communicate the impending change to relevant stakeholders so they are not blindsided. After the committee directs implementation, the change should be formally entered into the change management system to ensure it is tracked, governed, and executed through proper channels. Option B incorrectly frames post-presentation action as merely updating stakeholders rather than formally entering the change into the system. Options C and D reverse the correct sequence by entering the change management system before stakeholder communication.
