Content and Organization Part 2
August 16th, 2009Content and Organization, continuing my thoughts and ruminations on this topic.
Content: This is so important. In my day job, while I still freelance for more editing gigs since I have just this month completed two of them and been compensated for one (getting work on the side is awesome and more is coming from one vendor) in my day job content is not a consideration. If you expand the idea of content as product or ideas to further your business then where I work at has no content creation in progress at all. Part of that issue is it being a non-profit funded by the Fed. There is no interest in innovation, diversification, expansion, it is very static and stasis oriented.
Organization: Even worse than the lack of Content is the lack of Organization.
The org charts are never up to date, no position descriptions, zero checks and balances as well as a mentality of, The Deadline is Midnight so lets submit at 11:55 PM. All the more I am going to rant on that in this post.
Later Days and Stranger Ways,
Tad
