Book Reviews of Total Workday Control Using Microsoft Outlook
Book Review: Bridges the gap between lofty concepts and mindless minutiae
Summary: 5 Stars
Michael Linenberger offers a no-nonsense and immensely practical guide to managing email, tasks, projects and goals effectively.
I have read and admired the goal setting and time management concepts of people like Stephen Covey, David Allen, Julie Morgenstern et. al. And I am addicted (big time) to my Tablet PC and cellphone/PDA (Powered by Microsoft Outlook). But try as I might (using both self built solutions and software solutions from Covey and others), there was always a chasm between the scheduling/communications/planning tools in Outlook and the big picture, long range and strategic goal setting I needed to be doing. To be perfectly blunt, Outlook couldn't do it. It just made additional work.
Linenberger has spent years (and now is in his third book) developing and perfecting an elegantly simple, direct and effective way to use Outlook to manage emails, to plan out multi-step tasks, to delegate and follow up, to put ideas out of mind for now without losing them so you can come back later, and to do it all with a minimum of fuss and bother, without complicated or esoteric theory, and in a manner that actually REDUCES rather than adds time to your processes.
It is all laid out in this book with admirable, step-by-step instructions. Or, if you are lazy, Linenberger has an Outlook add-in software package that will create the different task and email views in Outlook for you.
Once you're done with the book, you might be tempted to react: "This isn't rocket science. Any idiot could figure out how to do this." That's the beauty of the system. Simple, effective. Once you have adopted the approaches outlined in the book they DO seem so simple and obvious. But that's hindsight speaking. I, for one, never would have gotten there without this book.
Highly recommended.
