Resumen del Editor

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 organization, while simultaneously nourishing a culture that allows individuals’ skills to flourish. Using case studies from some of the world’s largest and most successful companies, Team shows how leaders have employed the principles of team productivity to 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 healthy high performance, will be welcomed by readers working in any sized group or organization.

* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF containing visual graphics from the book, including the Getting Things Done model chart, a sample organization chart, box models, and more.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A new classic: David Allen and Edward Lamont nail it in 'Team'! I love this book and wished I had all the wisdom of it 10 or 20 years ago. This book is full of practical examples and guidance on how to more effectively tackle teamwork and get difficult projects accomplished. From purpose and standards, ways to stay accountable, prioritizing and delegating: it is all in there and more!"—Arjan Overwater, CEO Soup-Tech Holding B.V.

Well-read book with lots of useful material

First of all, this audio book is a pleasure to listen to. Not all authors make great readers, but this is a great example of high reading skills.
As opposed to "Getting Things Done" which is a step-by-step implementation manual, "Team" is more of a resource that your team can "shop" from, giving great advice and also good examples from the real world.

I strongly recommend this book - and also the "Getting Things Done" book which gives the individuals a great foundation to build upon.

No new information unfortunately

This was very disappointing. When you see a GTD title one would expect that the founder would be more involved with the discussion and presentation. David Allen’s input is minimal and anecdotal at best. And while GTD for teams is necessary and critical in today’s environment, little working skills or processes are offered in immediately applicable means. Rather there is review of a few successes in general terms. Rules for communication among teams is at best elementary. I had high expectations and unfortunately there is little that I can offer my team as takeaways. I still feel that I am a solo practitioner without an actionable approach to deploy with a team.
