Answer: A

Explanation:

The goals defined in the EBM guide are at an organizational level. Consider organizations where not all teams are using Scrum. Some parts may be using other agile methods (including continuous flow, just-in-time methods that don’t have a Sprint-like iteration), while others may be using plan-driven methodologies. Regardless of which methodology is used, an organization using EBM would still have strategic, intermediate or immediate actionable goals driving what different teams are working toward. Now if you consider an organization with a portfolio of products, If Scrum is being used, each team would have its own current Product Goal and each team working on the product would have a Sprint Goal, but those would all be more specific than the organizational goals.

One could link the organizational’ s goals to a Scrum Team’s goals in the context of a particular team. Each Scrum Team should ensure that their Product Goal and Sprint Goal are in support of the organization’s Strategic Goals, Intermediate Goals, and Immediate Tactical Goals.
