Why the bear?
My son gave me the name. I was always working, often grumpy — and, in fairness, I'm a bit round with a big beard. The grumpiness had a source: years of watching brilliant people in financial services spend their evenings reconciling screenshots into audit binders that created nothing.
So I built the way out — and put the bear in the den, where he belongs: inside the organisation, guarding it. The bear stays grumpy so you don't have to be.
