I've noticed a similar trend. It seems like there's a much lower tolerance for risk lately, and anything that isn't a guaranteed slam dunk is facing intense scrutiny. The strategic alignment justification needs to be rock solid, and even then, it's a tough sell. Hopefully, this is a temporary phase and not a sign of things to come.
Could it be related to the recent focus on efficiency and streamlining? Sometimes, when companies emphasize those areas, the bar for new initiatives gets higher because they have to demonstrate a clear and immediate impact on the bottom line. It's definitely frustrating when good ideas aren't getting the green light.
