Option C is the way to go. The project manager needs to make sure the report is crystal clear and serves the specific needs of the stakeholders.

Haha, good thing the project manager didn't go with option A - 'correct grammar and spelling'. That would have really impressed the stakeholders, am I right?

C seems like the right choice here. The stakeholders are clearly expressing that the report wasn't tailored to their needs, so the project manager needs to work on that.

I think the answer is C. The project manager needs to ensure the report is clearly directed to the needs of the stakeholders, not just a generic report.
