TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
An anonymous poster wondered how to manage change at a
growing company. Well, Anon. (mind if I call you Ann?),
based on the description you provided it seems like you
need one thing above all else: to appoint one person with
the responsibility for implementing the changes AND with
the authority to do so. It sounds like your president is
the big obstacle, and you'll need him to hand off the
necessary authority to this person before anything else
will work.
