Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
An independent person acting as the chair (such as a designated quality reviewer)
To ensure independence and objectivity, the chair of a quality review should not be the person responsible for developing the product (e.g., the Product Author). Often an independent person or a designated quality reviewer chairs it.
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 Product Author who created the deliverable
Why it's wrong here
The author cannot chair their own review due to lack of objectivity.
- ✗
Project Assurance
Why it's wrong here
Project Assurance oversees governance; they do not routinely chair operational product reviews.
- ✓
An independent person acting as the chair (such as a designated quality reviewer)
Why this is correct
Objectivity is maintained by having an independent chair run the quality review.

The Executive from the Project Board
Why it's wrong here
The Executive governs overall viability and does not chair micro-level product quality reviews.
