Show the demands on each team
A team may have funding and goals of its own while also receiving requests from several other parts of the organisation. Put those requests alongside the planned work so leaders can see the full demand on the people involved.
Make requests clear enough to consider
Record what is needed, why it matters, when it is needed and which people or teams it depends on. A shared way to describe requests helps people compare them and ask useful questions before making commitments.
Show what each choice means
When a team cannot take on everything, make the trade-offs visible. Explain what would need to wait or change, and who can make that decision. The wider organisation needs to understand how a choice in one area affects another.
Keep the agreed priorities visible
Record the decision and share it with the teams affected. Review the picture when new requests arrive or commitments change. These simple arrangements give governance a practical purpose: helping the right people make informed decisions.
