Process & Role Frameworks

Unclear roles create silent conflict. Unclear processes create polite chaos. This module defines responsibilities, decision ownership, and contribution models across teams and disciplines.

Strong frameworks provide stability without rigidity. They reduce coordination overhead, prevent hidden power struggles, and make collaboration predictable.

The result is clarity instead of constant negotiation.
