In addition, she presents some suggestions for writers who want to be an effective part of a development team. She notes that, at most large companies today, technical writers are clustered into a publications group. In years past, such groups have been necessary so writers could share scarce resources, such as expensive printers, illustrators, and computers. With the tools available today, however, a multitalented technical communicator can write, design, format, and illustrate a technical document. It is concluded that putting a writer on the development team clearly has advantages for everyone concerned in a development project: the company shortens its development cycles, the developers spend their time developing, the customer receives a better product, and writers get to explore new territory and broaden their skills.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":374472,"journal":{"name":"IPCC '88 Conference Record 'On the Edge: A Pacific Rim Conference on Professional Technical Communication'.","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124310333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

'Greasing the wheels' properly requires not only appropriate recognition but career planning, coaching, counseling, and regular, specific feedback-including correcting performance, when needed. Participative management methods ensure that all of these activities are carried out. It is concluded that the successful manager quickly learns that the choice of an effective, consistent management style means the difference between success and failure.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":374472,"journal":{"name":"IPCC '88 Conference Record 'On the Edge: A Pacific Rim Conference on Professional Technical Communication'.","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114113529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These tools substantially reduce or eliminate many of the low-level tasks that consumed the communicators' time.
