Description
This workshop adapts proven project management principles for the tasks writers and editors encounter every day. You'll advance your skills on both the business side and the practical, get-the-job-done side. Work with other writers and editors to consider problems that commonly arise, as well as solutions that make you more effective as a project manager.
Intended Audience:
The workshop focuses on skills and techniques especially useful for technical writers and editors. Writers often manage their own projects. Editors manage projects for small teams. Either way, you have to pay attention to business matters and smooth workflow.
