If you want to have a task that's aligned with multiple "areas of responsibility" or "strategic objectives" it's best to use contexts as Lisa has outlined. If there's some reason that you need to organize your work as projects, and you have a task that aligns with more than one, it won't be easy as each task can have only one immediate parent. The best I can suggest is to put the task in question into some other folder and then declare explicit dependencies, so that the shared task does not become active until its prerequisites in both project are satisfied, and when the shared task completes subsequent tasks in both projects will be activated.

With the goal setting you have a choice of week, month, year. But, you could use contexts for this feature and set up a context for the project and then tasks can have multiple contexts. I use a prefix in front of my contexts so that I can have the meaning different types of information. For example, "@" for traditional contexts, and "!" For projects.
