In fragile companies, processes are oral. "Ask Carlos how to do it." In robust companies, processes are written. **Documentation as Culture** means updating the manual isn't something you do "if there's time." It's part of the definition of "Done."

### **The Living Wiki**

Static documents die. Documentation must be where the work happens.

### **Embedded Instructions in Jestor**

This is where Jestor stands out by delivering the solution in practice:

- **Kanban Manuals:** The "Approval" column has a "?" icon. Hovering opens the approval criteria. The manual is in the flow.
- **Loom Videos:** Paste short 2-minute videos explaining the task inside the card. Faster to create, easier to consume.
- **Link Culture:** Instead of answering the question in chat, the manager sends the procedure link in Jestor. "It's here." This trains the team to seek the source.

### **Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)**

**How to keep it updated?** Give edit permission to those who execute. Those who do, update. Meet[Jestor](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com).
