If you had told me 10 years ago that strong documentation was one of the most important aspects of building great company culture, I would have thought you were nuts. But here we are. And that’s exactly what I believe.
Luckily, so does today’s guest, Podge Thomas, who shared so much goodness about the importance of documentation and how to incorporate it into your work practices. If you’re worried this will be a boring topic, think again. I got goosebumps, not once, not twice, but THREE different times during our conversation. It’s a good one.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why Podge approaches all her work through a lens of liberation and justice.
- What is documentation and how does it impact both employee experience and equity?
- The trouble with using Google Drive for documentation.
- Why we both love Notion so, so much.
- The thing most people get wrong when it comes to documentation.
- Tips for making the documentation process easier, including where to start.
