Team

Getting Things Done with Others

De: David Allen, Edward Lamont

Narrado por: Edward Lamont, David Allen

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.

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!"

GTD for Teams is Excellent

For advocates of GTD, this builds well on the GTD framework with specific details for team leadership and collaboration that are only hinted at in the original text. This text addresses in detail delegation aspect of GTD task management through theory and practice as well as puts meat on the bones for projects and team dynamics and collaborations.

Love GTD, so so on this book

I have been a GTD adherent for decades and think it is brilliant and required reading for anyone taking their career or a life seriously. I've read David's three books multiple times and each reading reveals new ideas.

This book is okay and includes a general team application of the specifics in GTD. I found the content a bit long. Ed does the vast majority of the dictation with David throwing in a paragraph here and there. I don't expect I'll come back to this one.

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.

Great overview of GTD in teams

I had high expectations, and this book met them and exceeded them. Material was clear, succinct, and left me plenty of breadcrumbs leading to further study in all of the areas I needed it.

Fantastic add-on to GTD

Enjoyed very much. Very helpful. Gives a lot of clear ideas for GTD for teams.
