Roles and what each one sees

Echo has three roles, and each one sees a different slice of the work. A messenger is a volunteer who lists their networks and shares content, mostly from a phone. An organizer runs a small team of messengers and sees only that team’s activity. An admin builds campaigns and reads results across the whole organization, usually on a computer. Each role sees what it needs and nothing more. An organizer cannot see another organizer’s team. A messenger does not see other volunteers’ results. Give each person the narrowest role that fits their job, because access widens as the role goes up.

Three nested frames showing access widening outward: a messenger sees their own networks, an organizer their team, and an admin the whole organization.
