If your company doesnt have a network, since you might be in a smaller organization, you can e-mail the file around to the various people and ask them to add their information.

It even happened to me a few times, where people would create files themselves, then send it around to others to review and make changes, but never save it on the network drive.

You need to be able to find certain documents on your cubicle walls for easy reference. Try to keep the pictures on a professional level, so obviously dont hang anything that might be lewd, harmful to others cultures or has a picture of something illegal on it. Try not to clutter your cubicle too much.
