How a senior executive transformed his systems

As many of you know, David is an enthusiastic fan of Lotus Notes with eProductivity.  Here’s a 4 minute video of the transformation of an executive David coached who implemented GTD along with eProductivity (and the amazing ripple effect that also had on his direct reports.)

How to dig out from your backlog

GTD & the Cloud

Whenever I’m on a plane and we fly through a cloud, I can’t help but think “Oh man, I hope this isn’t the one that has all my data in it…” Tony_D on Twitter.

Eric Mack recently interviewed David Allen on his use of Lotus Notes, eProductivity and cloud computing.  Hear what David thinks of working in the cloud and where he’d love to see things go…

workflowmap10Looking for the perfect Christmas gift for your co-workers?  Out of ideas on what to get the boss who has everything?  Still hoping your co-workers would just “get” GTD and make your life easier?  Buy them the new GTD Workflow Map!  We have a new “office bundle” that includes one large Workflow poster, one small poster, coaching DVD + 10 additional folded-desk size mapsLearn more.


Save some bucks on postage

foldedmapThe new GTD Workflow Map + DVD now also comes in a folded version, which is packaged in a flat-rate envelope, which makes international shipping much more economical.  You can also still get the rolled version, that ships in a tube, if you prefer that.

What’s different about this map versus the diagram that’s in the GTD book?

The diagram in the book (page 120) only includes Collect, Process and Organize phases. This new one also includes Review, Horizons of Focus, 3-Fold Nature of Work and Criteria for Choosing.  It’s a very cool map describing how all parts of GTD intersect and work together.

Can I still use the one in the book? [Read more →]
