The Identity of the Discomfort I Felt in Communicating with Young People｜Yota Nakamura (Writer & Consultant) |note The consultant implicitly wants to “clarify through a series of light, chat-like exchanges rather than clarifying the consultation in advance.”
- The author of this article wants “clarification in advance.”
- There’s a discrepancy when “small start here for clarification” is received by “those who want clarification in advance.”
- This is a protocol mismatch
- I think it’s a discrepancy between thinking that “clarification is a responsibility that the inquirer should take on alone in advance” and thinking that “the consultation process is to collaborate on the clarification.”
Personally, I thought, “Indeed, there is nothing wrong with using the word consultation to refer to the latter.
- It is a strange state of mind to think that when a protocol mismatch occurs, it is the other party’s fault.
- The phenomenon itself is symmetrical: Communication is symmetrical.
- From the use of words like “the young are,” it seems to implicitly bring in asymmetrical bias like “I am the older and more righteous one.”
- Strict in transmission, tolerant in reception.
