A Minute to Think

Autor Juliet Funt
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 aug 2021

Ceea ce diferențiază A Minute to Think de restul literaturii de management al timpului este refuzul de a mai trata productivitatea ca pe o simplă listă de sarcini bifate. Observăm că Juliet Funt nu ne propune să facem mai multe, ci ne oferă permisiunea strategică de a face mai puțin pentru a obține rezultate superioare. În timp ce Manage Your Day-To-Day de Jocelyn K. Glei se concentrează pe rutine creative și seturi de instrumente externe, abordarea lui Funt este mai puțin abstractă și mult mai aplicabilă în mediul corporatist dur, vizând direct structura normelor de lucru și cultura organizațională. Găsim în această carte conceptul de „white space” — acel spațiu alb necesar între activități care funcționează ca oxigenul pentru creativitate. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care autoarea demontează mitul disponibilității constante, oferind o strategie clară pentru a îmblânzi fluxul neîncetat de e-mailuri și ședințe care fragmentează atenția. Spre deosebire de alte titluri, A Minute to Think nu este doar despre individ, ci despre cum echipe întregi pot ieși din starea de epuizare cronică. Textul este construit pe o structură narativă alertă, cu povești memorabile și instrucțiuni tăioase, menite să recupereze controlul asupra unei zile de lucru dominate de reactivitate. Este o resursă esențială pentru contextul post-COVID, unde limitele dintre viața profesională și cea personală s-au dizolvat, lăsându-ne deseori cu gânduri productive doar în momentele de insomnie de la ora 3 dimineața.

Descriere scurtă

“You’re going to want to share copies of this book with your overbooked friends and colleagues, but before you do, take some time to read it yourself. Funt’s wisdom around making space is priceless.” —Seth Godin, author of The Practice
Do you wish you could stop the mayhem of work and life and just take a minute? Do you sense you could contribute more if there were a little more room in the day? Does busyness deprive you and your burnt-out team of the oxygen your talents need to catch fire?
Many have felt that way, yet taking a pause has seemed impossible—until now.
In A Minute to Think, Juliet Funt, a globally recognized warrior in the battle against busyness, provides a powerful guide that will give you the permission, framework, and specific direction you need to do the following:
  • Regain control of your overloaded, caffeinated, inbox-worshiping workday
  • Liberate yourself and your teams from burnout and busywork
  • Reclaim creativity and focus despite the chaos around you
  • Bring thoughtfulness into designing your next work norms
  • Tame the beast of email and escape the mire of meetings
  • Find your precious minute to think
You’re not alone in your yearning for freedom from constant reactivity. The global workforce today is so fried that it belongs in the food court of a county fair. We’re relentlessly behind the curve, dousing fires everywhere, and our 3 a.m. insomnia provides the only unscheduled thinking time of the day.
What we need reinserted in our lives is the missing element of white space—short periods of open, unscheduled time that, when recaptured, change the very nature of work. White space is the stepping back, the strategic pause, the oxygen that allows the sparks of our efforts to catch fire. White space has the power to radically—and simply—reinvent the way we approach work in this maxed-out, post-COVID 21st-century world.
With Juliet’s memorable stories, easy-to-use tools, and razor-sharp instruction, she carves for us an escape route from the overwhelming amount of low-value tasks and the daily avalanche of e-mails, meetings, decks, and reports. Using research, client stories, and a relatable voice, Juliet shows all of us how to reclaim time for thinking and make room for what truly matters. Whether you are an individual trying to build a more sane and humane flow of daily work, a team that wants new levels of efficiency and effectiveness, or an entire organization changing your culture toward thoughtfulness, this book will lead you there.
