Individuality
Capture each person or object from their own unique information. Even if they belong to the same affiliation or classification, it appears as a way of looking at and evaluating individual differences.
- Don't just describe people by their titles; instead, focus on their unique experiences and behavior.
- Use each characteristic as material for evaluation, even for products or cases in the same category.
Even if they are in the same classification, this person has their own circumstances.
Relying only on individual information may undermine the influence of role, affiliation conditions, and relational position.
Affiliation
We view others and things with reference to their belonging and position in relationships. By understanding the role, system, and connections, it appears as a way to position the target.
- Understand what people say in the context of their role and relational position.
- A case is understood by what classification or system it belongs to and how it relates to other cases.
If you read it as a statement from someone in this position, it makes sense.
Relying solely on location information may overlook inherent differences within the same group.
