What is GTD?

GETTING THINGS DONE® is a personal productivity methodology that redefines how you approach your life and work. Since the release of David Allen's seminal book, Getting Things Done, in 2001, millions have utilized its methodology to enhance productivity. Now known as GTD, it has transformed many lives and developed what Wired magazine called “a new cult for the information age”.

In a 2005 interview titled "Meet the man who can bring order to your universe," The Guardian hailed David Allen's ideas as "nothing short of life-changing." Time magazine recognized "Getting Things Done" as the self-help business book of its time in 2007, emphasizing its impact on personal and professional productivity. Wired revisited GTD and Allen in 2007, quoting Allen's perspective on complexity and simplification.

GTD has changed the lives of millions of people and increased personal productivity not only in the workplace, but away from it.

So, what is GTD for Teams?

Over the past two decades, work dynamics have evolved significantly. Today, success hinges not only on individual excellence but also on effective teamwork. This necessity is magnified in the post-pandemic era, with many teams operating remotely or in hybrid setups. Globally distributed teams demand cohesion and effective cooperation. Recognizing this paradigm shift, Team, co-authored by Edward Lamont and David Allen, emerges as a crucial resource for enhancing team dynamics and driving organizational success.

Team applies GTD principles to group settings, offering a comprehensive guide on fostering collaboration, communication, and execution. Real-world case studies illustrate how effective team productivity can elevate performance, alleviate stress, and fuel innovation.

In today's post-pandemic workplace, effective collaboration is paramount. Team provides readers with tools to navigate modern teamwork complexities and unlock cooperative potential.
