A groundbreaking book about how to harness the power of collaboration and work most effectively in groups - coauthored by Getting Things Done's David Allen
When Getting Things Done was published in 2001, it was a game-changer. By revealing the principles of healthy high performance at an individual level, it transformed the experience of work and leisure for millions. Twenty years later, it has become clear that the best way to build on that success is at the team level, and one of the most frequently asked questions by dedicated GTD users is how to get an entire team onboard.By building on the effectiveness of what GTD does for individuals, Team will offer a better way of working in an organisation, while simultaneously nourishing a culture that allows individuals' skills to flourish. Using case studies from some of the world's most successful companies, Team shows how the principles of team productivity improve communication, enable effective execution and reduce stress on team members. These principles are increasingly important in the post-pandemic workplace, where the very nature of how people work together has changed so dramatically.Team is the most significant addition to the GTD canon since the original, and in offering a roadmap for building a culture of sustainable high performance, will be welcomed by readers working in any sized group or organisation.David Allen is an international best-selling author who is widely recognized as the world's leading expert on personal and organizational productivity. Time Magazine called his flagship book, Getting Things Done "the definitive business self-help book of the decade." Ed Lamont is Co-founder and Senior Partner of Next Action Associates. His professional background is in executive coaching and training, and he has over 20 years of experience in the areas of leadership, productivity, and motivation.
