Collaborating Securely: Protecting Your Community and Yourself
I had the privilege of presenting Collaborating Securely: Protecting Your Community and Yourself to a room full of community leaders from the Society for Technical Communication.
I had the pleasure of discussing information security best practices for technical communicators through an STC webinar. Here’s the presentation:
I’ve changed out one slide from the Spectrum14 presentation. Looking forward to presenting this to a crowd at the STC Summit in Phoenix.

I’m developing a new lightning talk using the concept of a medieval bestiary.
A bestiary is an illustrated compendium of beasts, popular in the middle ages. Bestiaries introduced people to real and fantastical creatures that they would never encounter.
This Lightning Talk will provide a bestiary of techcomm practitioners, many of which you WILL encounter in the course of your career. Join me for an enjoyable look at today’s techcomm beasts.
Attendees will enjoy seeing to which beasts they and their colleagues are most similar. Note that any resemblance to actual techcomm practitioners is purely coincidental. No actual techcomm practitioners will be harmed in the production of this lightning talk.
I’m planning on tieing medieval images to techcomm careers and/or individuals. What do you all think about that?
I’ll be presenting this Lightning Talk at the STC Summit 14 in Phoenix in May.

Have you wondered about the job possibilities available to you as a technical communicator? This skills map by Brian Harris provides a great view of where core techcomm skills can take you. (Please note that the original post is no longer available. I’ve linked to a higher-resolution image Kai Weber saved.)
Are there any areas you would add? For me, information security fits into both domain expertise and risk management.
The Society for Technical Communication provides a great place to learn about techcomm and develop the networking connections to take you along your career path. If you’re interested in techcomm, check us out.
