Why Documentation Toolchains Should Match Contributor Needs — with Laura Novich, Salesforce
July 22, 2025
In this episode of the Knowledgebase Ninjas Podcast, Laura Novich, Lead Technical Writer at Salesforce, shares what truly makes a documentation toolchain effective. It's not just about the tools themselves, but how seamlessly they integrate into team workflows—and how confident contributors feel using them. Laura explains why features like content reuse, automation, and collaboration only add value when they align with the needs of different contributors—developers, product managers, support teams, and non-technical writers alike. She emphasizes the importance of training that meets non-technical users where they are, engaging with writing communities, and leveraging AI to bridge knowledge gaps. Through two real-world examples, Laura shows how honoring individual tool preferences can transform documentation into a strategic business asset.
