I honestly can't recall which phase is the most expensive. I thought "awakening" was significant, but it feels more like a starting point than a labor-intensive phase.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think "professionalizing" was mentioned as a key phase. But I'm torn between that and "implementing."

I think the most labor-intensive phase might be "implementing," but I'm not entirely sure. It seems like that's where a lot of the heavy lifting happens.

C is the right answer here. Professionalizing a program management organization requires significant investment in training, process development, and cultural change - that's why it's the most expensive and labor-intensive phase.

I'm a bit unsure on this one. The options seem pretty similar, but I'm leaning towards C since "professionalizing" implies a major transformation to get the organization to a new level of capability.
