Pain Points• Is engaging with lots of different people in the organization• Never hears back from the feedback he gave• Never knows when a new version of the documentation is released to the field
Goal #1
Spend as little time as possible providing the same information over and over again
Goal #3
Pain Points
Spend as little time as possible on finding the right information, because he is also using documentation for other components for which he isn’t the expert
• Needs targeted and relevant information on a mobile device• Content searches are not effective• There are too many content platforms to interact with
Goal #2
He wants his insights to spread throughout the organization
• Loses a lot of time giving the same information over and over again.
• Rather wants to fix issues in the documentation himself rather than sending emails
