How Does It Work?

  • Project and next action forms to organize your tasks
  • Instant capture tools to help you quickly get ideas out of your head
  • Automatic prompts that teach you the subtle but powerful aspects of GTD
  • The ability to link projects to next actions, emails, and contacts so that everything is in one place
  • Daily Dashboard to keep the important stuff close at hand
  • Built-in Weekly Review Coach to help you stay “on your game”
  • Powerful, integrated Reference Database to store reference and project support materials

What is GTD?

GTD book GTD is the popular shorthand for “Getting Things Done”, the groundbreaking work-life management system and book by David Allen that transforms personal overwhelm and overload into an integrated system of stress-free productivity.

The subtle effectiveness of GTD lies in this radically common sense notion:

With a complete and current inventory
of all your commitments,
organized and reviewed in a systematic way,
you can focus clearly,
view your world from optimal angles,
and make trusted choices about what to do
(and not do)
at any moment.

eProductivity with GTD helps you to achieve this relaxed, productive state, by showing you how to:

  • Capture anything and everything that has your attention
  • Define actionable things into discrete outcomes and concrete next steps
  • Identify the very next action to move forward on those outcomes
  • Organize reminders and information in the most streamlined way
  • Stay current with appropriately frequent reviews of your commitments

Implementing GTD alleviates the feeling of overwhelm, instills confidence, and releases a flood of creative energy.



Lotus Knows How to Get Things Done... with eProductivity

At Lotusphere 2010, IBM Lotus Software VP, Kevin Cavanaugh, talked about needing better tools and methods to handle the information overwhelm we all face every day. He then offered GTD and eProductivity as solutions to the problem.

Also at Lotusphere 2010 and globally on the web, people are learning about eProductivity through it's “Rock Your Work with Lotus and eProductivity” entry in the Lotus Knows brand awareness program.
