Based on your review and analysis of the “The Invisible Sponsors” case study (Kerzner, 2017, pp. 451-452), address the following key discussion topic elements:

• Describe      the role and responsibilities of the project sponsor in the subject      organization. Why did this affect the project schedule development?
• The      project manager needs direction from the project sponsor concerning      whether to base the schedule on best time, least cost, or least risk. Why      is this important for developing the project schedule?
• Which      project organizing or initiating documents, or artifacts, would typically      provide an answer to the project manager’s question? Explain.
