Documenting Workflows – Why is it Important?

Documenting Workflows can often seem like a bore, particularly in the fast-paced world of law where hands-on work often takes priority. However, the process of workflow documentation is crucial if you aim for a business model that isn’t entirely reliant on your efforts.

Understanding the Challenge in Documenting Workflows

Why do many of us find the task of documenting workflows so difficult? The explanation lies in the intrinsic nature of our tasks. They are, predominantly, information processing tasks that are temporary and intangible. This abstractness can make the process of workflow documentation seem daunting.
