I'm kind of confused by why and how trade-off alignment can be a goal setting exercise. Isn't this something that changes as the year progresses? Aren't project managers constantly negotiating these changes?
Is this the kind of solution a consultant comes up with because "teams actually communicating effectively outside a managed workshop" isn't a marketable silver bullet?
I guess the key take away is it's an easy pitfall to make team OKRs that ignore cross team dependencies. If your team expects deliverables from another team, it can be useful to get that reflected in OKRs. To that end... actually talk to teams your team depends on and figure out if your dependencies are a priority!
Seems like basic stuff though.
