Explanation
An internal reorganization occurs when roles, responsibilities, and reporting structures are redistributed within an organization without involving external parties. In this scenario, the sponsor's departure triggers a redistribution of duties to the project manager-both individuals are internal to the same organization. This is a classic example of internal reorganization driven by a personnel change. A business demerger (B) involves splitting one company into two separate entities. Outsourcing (C) involves transferring work to an external vendor or third party. A business process change (D) refers to modifying how a business operation is performed, not who performs it. The key indicator here is that internal roles and responsibilities shifted within the existing organizational structure.
