DAVID ALLEN COMPANY AND PDI NINTH HOUSE LAUNCH GTD MASTERING WORKFLOW INTERACTIVE E-LEARNING PROGRAM (GTD)
SAN FRANCISCO (March 11, 2009) – The David Allen Company, experts in personal and organizational productivity, and PDI Ninth House, the leader in organizational learning solutions for large scale behavior change, today announced the launch of GTD® Mastering Workflow Interactive at the GTD Summit in San Francisco. The new e-learning program is based on the essential workflow components in David Allen’s international bestselling book, “Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity.”
PDI Ninth House has adapted Allen’s bestselling book and popular instructor-led Mastering Workflow class to create an engaging online learning experience. This one-hour online course offers actionable content, interactive activities, an engaging character-based storyline and practical resources and tools for individuals to master the essentials of getting things done. The course is available to companies as a stand-alone offering, scalable across an organization or as a complement to the Mastering Workflow classroom course led by a David Allen Company instructor.
“We are delighted to partner with PDI Ninth House on this project,” notes David Allen, founder and chairman of David Allen Company. “PDI Ninth House has done a tremendous job in translating the best practices of GTD into a practical and dynamic e-learning experience, so that employees can learn how to be more productive and efficient.”
Pressure is building for every contributor in an organization to become more agile, manage change and transition seamlessly, adapt to new strategic priorities and balance innovation with efficiency. The GTD Mastering Workflow Interactive course addresses a critical need for individuals to maintain control and perspective over the total inventory of work and life commitments – so that they can make trusted choices about what to do (and not do) at any point in time.
Fast Company magazine calls David Allen “one of the world’s most influential thinkers” in the arena of personal productivity. His systematic approach has become the gold standard in workflow mastery.
“PDI Ninth House is honored to welcome David Allen to our esteemed faculty of today’s most experienced business experts,” said Jeff Snipes, board member and Ninth House founder. “The new GTD Mastering Workflow Interactive e-learning program will help organizations around the globe put the GTD principles into practice, resulting in broad scale increases in productivity and workflow management.”
