Explanation

Adding a new line to the communications plan to deliver a weekly status report with a dashboard is the most targeted and professional solution. It directly addresses both problems: regularity (weekly cadence) and conciseness (a dashboard format). Adding the sponsor to all emails (A) creates information overload, not concise updates. Including them in all meetings (B) is time-consuming and not concise. Including them in daily stand-ups (D) is tactical/team-level detail inappropriate for a sponsor and still lacks conciseness.
