Do you find yourself repeating the same explanation every time a new employee asks, "How do I do this?"? We've all been there: confused because you've left out important details or handled things differently every time you hand over a task.

My team struggled with the same thing, but when we tried out a method for creating an organized manual that a senior suggested, it made an amazing difference.
