2025 has been a year of change, personally and professionally.
At the beginning of the year, I worked directly in the technical writing space, leading documentation initiatives. In April, I transferred to a role in PMO transformation. Through it all, I realized I was still solving the same problem: making information accessible and empowering people to learn and understand on their own.
When I tell people that I work in Knowledge Management and Technical Writing, they usually nod and say something like, “Oh, we have technical writers at our company.”
That’s when I smile and say, “It’s not quite what you imagine.”
Recently, I had the chance to talk about effective knowledge solutions on the Knowledgebase Ninjas podcast from Document360. We dove into the real challenges technical writers face when moving into knowledge management, such as reorganizing scattered content systems, understanding information flow, and building effective documentation frameworks.
Hi, I’m Jenna, and welcome to Beyond the Docs! This is where I go “beyond the docs” to explore everything that surrounds technical writing: capturing knowledge as it happens, structuring information for clarity, improving processes, and embracing emerging tools like AI.
