I think the project manager's sphere of influence includes sponsors, but I’m not entirely sure if customers might also fit in there.

This is a good test of our understanding of project management principles. The project manager's key stakeholders are the ones they need to actively manage and influence to ensure project success. I think the answer is sponsors, since they provide the resources and authority for the project.

I'm a little confused by this question. The project manager has to deal with a lot of different stakeholders, so I'm not sure which one is considered part of their "sphere of influence." I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

Okay, I've got this. The project manager's main stakeholders are the ones they interact with and coordinate most closely. That would be the sponsors who provide funding and direction for the project.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem pretty broad - customers, sponsors, directors, resource managers. I'll have to think carefully about which one is most directly part of the project manager's influence.
