FOCP practice question 7 of 10

A key role toward building FinOps adoption is the Driver? (True or False)

Full set: 300 questions
Answer options
A: False
B: True Correct answer
Correct Answer:
B. True
Explanation

The statement is false. Within the official FinOps framework as defined by the FinOps Foundation, "Driver" is not a formally designated key role or persona. The framework specifies key personas who are critical to adoption, such as the FinOps Practitioner, Executive, Business/Product Owner, Engineer/Operator, and Finance/Procurement professional. While these roles collectively "drive" FinOps adoption, "Driver" itself is not a standard, defined role in the lexicon.

Why Incorrect

True: This option is incorrect because the official FinOps framework does not define "Driver" as a key role. The framework uses more specific titles for its core personas.
