Join us as we sit down in conversation with New York Times Best Selling author David Allen, one of the world's most influential thinkers on personal productivity.

David’s thirty-five years of experience as a management consultant and executive coach has earned him worldwide and Forbes’ recognition as one of the top five executive coaches in the U.S. His New York Times bestselling book, “Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity,” has sold millions of copies and has been published in thirty languages, and the “GTD” methodology it describes has become a global phenomenon, being taught by training companies in more than ninety countries. 

David Allen’s GTD Methodology has shown millions how to transform a fast-paced, overwhelming, overcommitted life into one that is balanced, integrated, relaxed, and has more successful outcomes. GTD’s broad appeal is based on the fact that it applies from the boardroom to the living room to the classroom. It is hailed as “life-changing” by students, busy parents, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives. 

About the author: David Allen is the international best-selling author of "Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity,” "Ready for Anything: 52 Productivity Principles for Work and Life", and "Making It All Work: Winning at the Game of Work and the Business of Life." David is the Founder and Chairman of the David Allen Company. He continues to write articles and essays that address today’s ever-changing issues about living and working in a fast-paced world while sustaining balance, control, and meaningful focus.
