Content strategy is fast becoming one of the key methods by which communication experts can help deliver useful information to a variety of audiences. But how do technical communicators enter into this mix? After all, we are often responsible for delivering essential content to internal and external audiences. We help people get work done and translate difficult concepts into plain language. We are excellent writers and editors.
Using data from my own research into content strategy work in the academic, private, and non-profit sectors, in addition to research amassed from authoritative academic and industry sources, I lay out a roadmap for how technical communicators can contribute to their organizations’ content strategies. Join us to gain useful insights from Guiseppe’s research about the future of technical communication and content strategy.
