PDCA stands for Plan-Do-Check-Act, so 4 makes sense.

I’m confused because I thought there were 3 steps, but that seems too few for the Plan stage.

I feel like there might be 5 steps in the Plan stage. I saw a similar question in our practice quiz last week.

I think the Plan stage has 4 steps, but I’m not entirely sure. I remember something about breaking it down into phases.

I’m confused; I thought there were 3 steps, but I could be mixing it up with another model.

I remember discussing 6 steps in class, but that might have been for the entire PDCA cycle, not just the Plan stage.

I've got a good feeling about this one. Creating the Orchestrator model and changing the Recognizer/Dispatch type should do the trick. The other options seem less relevant.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know monetary policy has to do with the government's influence on the economy, but I'm not totally clear on the specifics. I'll have to think this through carefully.
