The correct answer is A.

Managing the stakeholder engagement is very important to the success of the project as it enables the project manager to define proactive actions to win support and minimize negative impacts to the project. As managing stakeholder engagement is an important part of project management, it is the responsibility of the project manager.

C. The project team
Incorrect. Although the project team may be involved in managing stakeholder engagement, it is not its responsibility.

D. The sponsor
Incorrect. The sponsor represents the high-level management of the project that is not expected to be responsible for managing the project in detail.
