I'll be frank and say that my usecase is entirely different, so my methods probably won't work well for you.
One of the big questions is if you want your notes to be hierarchical or not (the latter is more akin to a zettelkasten method, and what obsidian does well, the former is more like a wikipedia). Hierarchical tends to be better if you have to share your notes with others, it's closer to how a librarian thinks, while non hierarchical is better for making new connections and coming up with new ideas usually.
Your usecase sounds more like you'd want hierarchical (so for example a section for each of the aspects you mentioned and then a subsection for each quarter or something). If the calendar functionality is important, you'll want an option to attach deadlines to notes and to be able to pull those from all documents to be able to know what has to be done by when. For as much of a meme as it is, org-mode is unrivaled at that, but plenty of other software can support this, either natively or with plugins.
The linking thing Obsidian does is more akin to zettelkasten and better suited to show connections between concepts, ideas and notes, it's not super well suited for creating a hierarchy of notes.
I'd be surprised if there were no methods that someone in your situation has come up with, I just don't happen to know any unfortunately.
In my case I use obsidian with a zettelkasten method (yeah it's a meme but it works for me) for concepts and ideas, and a physical notebook with a bulletjournal method for daily todos, as a meditation/mindset/mindfullness thing and to plant longer term things - both aren't well suited for your usecase.
Picrel is my obsidian graph - as you can see, there's little hierarchy to speak of. Great for learning, combining concepts or coming up with new ideas, shit for leading a team.
