Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • The external auditors and consultants.

    Why it's wrong here

    Auditors provide external assessment, not internal operational responsibility.

  • Every person in the organization.

    Why this is correct

    ITIL 4 states that continual improvement is everyone's responsibility.

  • Only the dedicated Continual Improvement Manager.

    Why it's wrong here
