When developing an EGIT (Enterprise Governance of IT) implementation program plan, the best approach is to select projects that are high-benefit and relatively easy to implement first. This approach, often referred to as "low-hanging fruit," helps build momentum, demonstrate value quickly, and secure buy-in from stakeholders for more complex initiatives.

By focusing on high-benefit, easy-to-implement projects, enterprises can create a solid foundation for more challenging initiatives and ensure continuous progress in their governance implementation efforts.
