Explanation

During program initiation, high-level, strategic attributes are defined: the program's benefits (why it exists), its scope (what it will deliver), and its link to organizational strategy (how it aligns with business goals). Program risk, however, is identified and analyzed during program planning - not initiation. Initiation focuses on establishing the program's justification and mandate, not the detailed risk identification that comes later in planning. Answer: A - program risk is the exception.
