Explanation
The project manager is ultimately responsible for managing stakeholder expectations regardless of the project's profile or risk level. This includes communication, identifying stakeholder needs, managing engagement, and ensuring expectations align with what the project can deliver. The project sponsor provides funding and high-level support but does not manage day-to-day expectations. The PMO provides governance and standards. A risk assessment officer handles risk-specific activities. None of these roles replace the project manager's ownership of stakeholder expectations management.
