shared goals
Mutual desired outcomes
Shared goals are objectives that two or more people or groups pursue together, requiring coordination and mutual commitment.
The phrase emphasizes alignment—not just similar aims, but goals held in common: The partnership succeeded because of their shared goals.
In organizational contexts, shared goals distinguish collaborative efforts from parallel ones where parties merely happen to want the same thing.
