The best way for the organization to ensure that all IT activities are aligned with the organization’s objectives is to establish increasingly detailed objectives at each level of the organization that align directly with the objectives of the layer above. This is based on the ITIL 4 principle of cascading objectives, which is a method for translating high-level strategic objectives into more specific and measurable operational objectives. By doing this, the organization can create a clear line of sight between the vision, mission, and goals of the organization and the actions and outcomes of the IT divisions. This also enables the organization to monitor and evaluate the performance and value of the IT activities and ensure that they are contributing to the achievement of the organization’s objectives. The other options are not sufficient to ensure alignment, as they do not address the root cause of the misalignment, which is the lack of clarity and consistency in the objectives. Risk mitigation strategies, compliance controls, and feedback collection are important aspects of IT governance, but they do not necessarily ensure that the IT activities are aligned with the organization’s objectives. They may also create unnecessary bureaucracy and overhead that may hinder the agility and innovation of the IT divisions. References: https://www.atlassian.com/blog/technology/what-the-new-itil-4-means-for-you-and-your-team
