| Open managerial question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What exactly is being governed? | A relationship, an activity, an outcome, or an interface? |
| Which power is legitimate for this task? | Influence without a clear task can look like arbitrary control |
| What information is missing? | Unobserved behavior and context weaken both coordination and accountability |
| Which conflict is productive? | A difference can reveal a design tradeoff rather than a partner defect |
| What would justify integration? | Ownership should solve a defined coordination or control problem |
