The frameworks

Public and group communication

Town hall response

Answer honestly in a setting where every word gets quoted onward.

Answering a question in front of a large group, where the answer will be repeated.

The shape

  1. Acknowledge
  2. Clarify
  3. Answer
  4. Context
  5. Broader message

Why that order

Clarifying matters more here than anywhere. A question answered on the wrong reading becomes the version everybody repeats.

A worked example

That is an important question. If you are asking whether there will be role reductions, no decision has been made to reduce the team. The broader change is about restructuring workflows.

Mostly serves Presence, and reaches into Message and Connection.

A framework tells you what shape the answer takes. It cannot tell you whether shape is what you are short of, and for most people it is not. Which one is yours, and whether a framework is the right instrument at all, is what a Discovery Call is for.
