The Canary Watcher
Pain is not, generally, a Good Sign.
The Canary Watcher measures the quality of an organization by his own pain level, and the observed pain levels of those with whom he works. He brings new participants into existing organizations so they can express the raw pain of the innocent. He may use alcohol to get others to verbalize their pain points. He asks others, and himself, âAre you happy in this process, and if not, why not?â When an organization causes pain in himself or others, he treats that as a problem to be fixed. People should feel joy in their work.
