Thank you for this, Yuji. You caught the part most people scroll past: the cultural context map is load-bearing. That gap between direct and indirect communication styles can undo every protocol a team builds if nobody names it.
And the fact that you ran something similar and saw score divergence show up where retros couldn't, that's exactly the kind of field evidence that makes the Snapshot worth building. I'd welcome hearing more about what you saw in that cross-functional project if you're ever up for sharing.
One question: have you had a chance to walk through the full Module 1 sequence (Posts 1–3)? Curious whether the progression landed the way I designed it or whether your experience reshuffled the order of what hit hardest.
