A former operator says “disagree & commit” usually shows up when organizations hit a scale limit

The implied reading is that leadership starts using it when they no longer believe the company can be as effective through consensus as it once was. In that sense, the phrase can signal a shift in organizational limits, not just a healthy decision-making norm.
