This white paper introduces the Weak Signal Cultivation Model (WSCM). WSCM is a human-centric framework for detecting, structuring, and tracking weak risk signals as observed by frontline staff. The model centers on a continuous [0,10] x [0,10] coordinate field--the Weak Signal Cultivation Field, in which each identified signal is positioned as a node on two independent dimensions: its current Risk Intensity (x) and its Risk Growth Potential (y). Represented as a risk locus, nodes move across the field over time as new team assessments or measurements arrive. The locus reflects the signal's trajectory across four possible regions: Question Marks, Lit Fuses, Sleeping Cats, and Owls. Through this graphical approach, bridging risk communication from the frontline experience to management decision-making is made through a single organizational vocabulary. The model introduced in this document is designed to serve as a practitioner tool and a conceptual foundation for AI-supported analytics.
