explain what a framework gives and what it does not.
Planned topics
- A framework offers shared vocabulary, a repeatable method, and a checklist of things not to forget.
- It is a toolbox to adapt, not a law to obey.
- Frameworks help large, multi-team organizations stay consistent; small programs need a fraction.
- Value is measured by better decisions, not by documents produced.
