The Grayling Software team has two competing technical visions for the same module. The conflict is delaying the OKR for 'System Reliability.'

What should the project manager do?

  1. Facilitate a 'Set-Based Design' session or a 'Spike' where both approaches are tested against the 'Reliability' Key Result.
  2. Vote with the senior engineer to settle the matter quickly so the team can resume work.
  3. Apply 'Smoothing' by telling both sides that their ideas are good and they should find a way to merge them, after reviewing the current risk register entries.
  4. Escalate the disagreement to the Grayling CTO to make the final architectural decision.
