action owner
I find it strange too. However, if this is related to project management and such, I think they may mean this. This would be the person who is responsible within the organisation for the action to be implemented (the implementation may be done by someone else). If your text talks about pressure cookers and matrices, then it is definitely the owner :-)

Het lijkt op interne salesspeak, maar ja, daar moet ik het maar mee doen...
