A key change enablement task that must be completed during the driver identification phase of an IT initiative is to identify the business and governance drivers. Understanding these drivers is essential for aligning IT initiatives with the strategic objectives and governance needs of the enterprise.

Identifying business and governance drivers involves understanding the fundamental factors that influence the direction and priorities of IT initiatives. These drivers include strategic goals, regulatory requirements, market conditions, and internal organizational needs.
