    The strategies and tactics in this book are excellent. You can easily adapt them to any situation - digital or paper based. I bought 20 copies for my team. Read it and do it now!

    Mr. Gleeson covers some tried and true approaches, and isn't afraid to mention the other authors whose work is consistent with his perspective. I like this, and I like his references to those similarities. What I like most, however, is the fact that he as updated his recommendations with approaches that describe how today's technologies -- e.g., PDA's, PIMs, web based tools -- can be used to help you be more effective. He has a chapter focused on how not to be overwhelmed by email! And another on using electronic task lists and journals. I have read many many books on prioritizing and organizing work so that I can be more effective, but this is the first one that has really talked about how to use the technology to help, and it doesn't require that you buy a tool developed by them.

    The book is well organized and comprehensive. Mr. Gleeson provides easy to follow lists of instructions for how to implement the suggestions. There is also a very short executive summary of the book, and an overview of each chapter to describe what will discussed.

    One point that I found slightly irritating -- the author starts out pumping his service,and descriptions of he work they have done with companies are peppered unnecessarily throughout the book.

    Overall -- good book, good tips, love the technology focus!

    I must listen to it again. This book is packed with great tips and ideas. I'm certain I missed a bunch with just one listening. Another reviewer mentioned it was a "commercial?" He/She must not have listened past the first few minutes where the author offers jobs to folks who learn and understand these great concepts. I highly recommend this book to folks who want to make the best use of their precious time.

    Excellent. Many great ideas.

    I really enjoyed the book. The ideas were not necessarily new, but they were stated in such a way that it reminds you how simple it is to make positive improvements . It’s already been working for me.

    Great ideas!

    Any additional comments?

    They make good points in this book, however I found it mostly a sales pitch for their organizing program and I'm not keen on paying to buy a commercial.

    Good Points, But Just A Sales Pitch

    Not an easy listen...actually painful, not to mention boring, dry, and void of anything fresh or inspirational.

    Painful!
