There's a lot of siloing along lines of role, power and seniority going on in the comments. In any suboptimal communication situation like this try for Communicative Rationality [1]. It's no use different groups inventing their own languages and rationales for speaking past one another as a form of combat. To pick the most important ones (in my opinion) keep it: - Sincere - Relevant - Falsifiable - Goal directed Also keep it inclusive and acknowledge conflicts and power relations [2] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicative_rationality https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicative_rationality [2] Some people do not like having power relations made explicit (because they essentially derive their power from subterfuge and insinuation). Openly doing this may cause trouble in some settings (see "48 Laws" by Robert Greene).
