Explanation
Information radiators (e.g., task boards, burndown charts, sprint walls) are a core agile transparency tool - they make project status continuously visible to anyone, including executives, without requiring a dedicated meeting or report. Option B is correct because directing the executive to the information radiator respects agile's principle of transparency while being efficient. Option A (inviting to standup) could disrupt the team's focused daily sync. Option C (personal meeting) is inefficient when the information is already publicly displayed. Option D (emailing information) creates redundant reporting overhead and is not necessary if a radiator already exists.
