I think option C sounds right. It makes sense to work with the project sponsor for a joint recognition. But I'm not entirely sure if that’s the only thing they should have done.

This question is a real head-scratcher. The risk manager should have at least invited the sponsor to the celebration, right? Avoiding the sponsor's wrath should be the top priority.

D is the real winner here. If the risk doesn't come back, then the response was a true success. Otherwise, it's just a temporary fix, and the risk manager shouldn't be throwing a party yet.

I'm not sure why the risk manager celebrated without the sponsor's buy-in. That seems like a recipe for trouble. C seems like the best option to keep everyone on the same page.
