LeadershipTeam
- Capture everything that has your attention in a trusted external system so your mind is free to think, not remember.
- Clarify each item by deciding the very next physical action and the desired outcome before you file or schedule it.
- Organize actions by context (e.g., calls, computer, errands) and projects so you can see only what’s relevant in the moment.
- Review your system regularly—especially a weekly review—to keep it current, complete, and aligned with your priorities.
- Do work by choosing what to do next based on context, time, energy, and priority rather than reacting to the loudest demand.
- Use GTD principles with your team to create shared clarity on commitments, reduce stress, and improve follow-through on collective goals.
