HCD.1:1 - Problem Frame

Human development is often commissioned from a visible carrier: a course catalogue, certification, role framework, AI platform, assessment dashboard, or manager’s request. Those carriers can be useful, but none identifies by itself what a particular person must contribute in later Work.

Later Work is configured. The same named task can require different contributions when the product configuration, Method, information access, AI support, time, authority, specialist interface, or critical-error boundary changes. Assisted performance may also conceal which contribution belongs to the person and which belongs to a tool, another Agent, or an organization.

Demand therefore has to be recovered from representative Work and its intended result. Current observations are valuable, but future planning sometimes precedes an actual Work occurrence. The method must support honest prospective hypotheses without silently upgrading plans or demonstrations into current evidence.
