Certified Professional Organizer (CPO®) and productivity expert Tamara Myles has developed a simple model-the Productivity Pyramid-which provides an actionable framework for anyone to achieve better results. Based on a sequence of steps leading to peak performance, the author's easily adapt able system consists of five levels:
• Physical Organization: from decluttering to filing-fool-proof strategies for handling incoming papers and ensuring information remains accessible
• Electronic Organization: from dealing with email to electronic file management options such as cloud computing
• Time Management: mastering the three P's-Plan, Prioritize, and Perform
• Activity-Goal Alignment: breaking objectives into specific, relevant, and measurable daily tasks
• Possibility: identifying new life and business goals that will help you reach your greatest potential

First, a quick assessment determines your strengths and weaknesses and pinpoints where to focus for immediate results.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Fairly helpful but mostly a rehash of ideas and systems introduced elsewhere. Much of the book was quotes from other works. Much time was also devoted to pushing the idea of hiring a consultant. I don't fault her; this is obviously a career book and she doesn't hide it. It just didn't introduce much that was new. But she did draw together several other sources and ideas from others in a way that was inspiring so 3 stars.
