Productivity skills enable people to better apply their technical skill and knowledge.
The Getting Things Done® (GTD®) methodology was developed 30 years ago by New York Times bestselling author David Allen. While David originally developed the methodology by observation, experimentation, and practice, researchers have since shown that the principles taught in GTD relieve cognitive load, allow for increased focus, even result in peak performance, or what is popularly called “flow.” In other words, GTD isn’t only about getting things done. The real promise of GTD is efficient engagement. It’s productivity with presence and purpose.
The course is available in on-demand, virtual, and in-person learning formats.
