David Allen- Learning Blackbelt Productivity
Here is another great resource that has been influential in our office that has helped us increase effectiveness and efficiency. Author and productivity master David Allen's books Getting Things Done and Ready for Anything give a great system for organizing everything that needs to get done in a system that works. Allen's basic tenet- get things out of your head (or your ineffective system) and into systematized processes that work consistently and effectively.
One of the things that differentiates Allen is that the books go beyond the theory of "Getting Things Done," he walks you through the processes with some great tools. The tools are as simple as a basic tickler file to make sure you don't forget your dentist appointment on Monday, to more advanced gadgets like his firm's Getting Things Done Plugin for Microsoft Outlook.
As you can tell we are big fans. Find out more at the David Allen Company website or read David Allen's blog for more information.
