Jørn Kippersund jobber mest som fastlege. Ved siden av dette jobber han også som interkommunal legevaktsjef, som nettredaktør for Allmennlegeforeningen, i tillegg til at han har flere verv både i legeforeningen og i lokale frivillige organisasjoner.

For å fungere etterrettelig uten stress i så mange roller og verv er metoden innbokskontroll avgjørende. Innbokskontroll kan beskrives som en sterkt forenklet utgave av GTD. Jørn mener det kan fungere som et lavterskel trinn til bedre produktivitet, mer etterrettelighet og mindre stress. Veien til GTD blir langt kortere for den som har lært seg innbokskontroll.

De siste to årene har Jørn holdt foredrag om og coachet personer i metoden. Han har blant annet hjulpet ansatte i Netlife Research, Den norske legeforening og ved Høyskolen i Volda til å oppnå innbokskontroll.

Jørn treffer du også på Jørns blogg om innbokskontroll.

Kenneth er en skeptisk produktivitet- og linuxentusiast som har drevet med GTD i de 4 siste årene.

Han vil fortelle om et av prosjektene han jobber med for tiden “Få kollegaer, prosjektmedarbeidere og familie til å bruke GTD”.

Kenneth jobber for selskapet Meps Norway AS som han selv kaller “GTD for byggebransjen”.

Største endring etter GTD: Bedre forståelse av tilgjengelig tid og mulighet til å prioritere de tingene som virkelig teller.

Thomas Moen lever av å snakke, utvikle og lære mennesker om sosiale medier. Han er gründeren bak bloggsamfunnet iPublish og jobber også som rådgiver, prosjektleder og kurs-/foredragsholder innen sosiale medier.

Han er en fyr med mange baller i luften, og har etter få måneder med GTD fått snudd livet sitt på hodet. Med GTD har han nå mer struktur, kontroll og livskvalitet enn han har hatt på mange år.

Morten har holdt på med GTD i snart 5 år og anser seg selv Blackbelt GTDer. Har under beltet tre fulldagseminar; to GTD Mastering Workflow og et GTD Making it all Work.

Han samarbeider med David Allen Company og deres sertifiserte partner for UK – Next action Associates for å bringe GTD til Norge.

Morten blogger jevnlig om GTD på http://mortenrovik.senson.no.

Største endring etter GTD: større oversikt og opplevelse av kontroll. Opplever minimalt med stress og har fått mer perspektiv på livet.

Emne: Hvordan GTD holder meg flytende

Jeg har brukt David Allens GTD-teknikker siden noen uker etter at den første boka kom ut i 2002. Jeg skal på ikke påstå at jeg er en ekspert på GTD, og får forøvrig fortsatt ikke til «weekly review» slik jeg ønsker! Men har erfaringer og tanker om hva som hjelper – og hva som kåler ting til. Uten GTD hadde jeg sunket forlengst!

Implementing GTD is transformative. It can unleash untapped reserves of energy and dramatically increase productivity, while reducing stress and fostering better work-life balance.

Biography

As an executive director at Morgan Stanley University and enthusiastic GTD champion, I made GTD part of the standard curriculum for new employees. At the same time, I was evolving and optimising my own systems. I’ll share a brief travelogue of this GTD journey – the ups, downs, cautionary tales and (hopefully) sage advice. What’s important to consider when getting GTD to bed-in in big companies? Does GTD translate into global cultures? How did my own GTD thinking inform what happened in the wider organisation?

Frode Odegard:
Confessions of an Entrepreneur and GTD Black Belt: Results from Chaos

.
In this talk I will discuss GTD from the perspective of a serial entrepreneur, someone who is much better at starting new things than he is at finishing them.  I will explain why the human mind needs an external, trusted system for improving productivity, perspective, and control. These days almost all of us are leading lives with complexities we can’t easily avoid, so we have to find better ways to handle them.

I will cover the key aspects of GTD – managing your workflow, keeping perspective with multiple horizons of focus, and conducting regular reviews to maintain perspective and control. I will also discuss my own motivation for getting started with GTD, how I did it, and what my life is like now. Finally, I will include some lessons learned that should be useful for those just starting out as well as for more advanced practitioners.
