From The Vault: A Conversation with David Allen
David Allen is a NYTimes best-selling author of perhaps the best book written on personal productivity, "Getting Things Done." This episode was recorded in 2017. But the subject of productivity is so timeless. And the way that David Allen talks about it, it will open your eyes. "Getting Things Done" is an essential book for all sellers to read because it teaches you how to truly break down a job, like a sales opportunity with an enterprise client, into the smallest logical tasks that need to be accomplished. And how to predict the very next actions you need to take to keep momentum moving forward. In our conversation David and I dive deep into how undone tasks are stress inducing. We dig into the three main behaviors that you must use to manage your commitments. And explore the larger idea of the barriers to productivity that we all confront on a daily basis. And how to work through them.
