Thoughts on why trade-offs exist, how it's core to business analysis, and why it's important for project success.
Great edition! As soon as I read it, I started seeing trade-offs everywhere.
Thanks Alvin. Hope that you had a good Christmas!
As for trade-offs, do you find that seeing them is one thing - having to accept them is another thing entirely! 😅
For sure. And that point about "A trade-off isn’t always zero-sum" is a real gem.
It's so easy to assume you must do one thing at the full expense of another. Trade-offs are much easier to accept when more stakeholders get more out of it.
