Why you should read Powerful Planning Skills
All books that promise to teach you how to manage your time and your tasks more efficiently must be judged by one simple measure: Do they offer techniques that you actually can implement into your life? In the case of Powerful Planning Skills the answer is an unqualified yes. Although the slim book at first looks simplistic, don’t be deceived. Peter Capezio has written a nuts-and-bolts guide that essentially is a straightforward, interactive workbook. The text zeros in on strategic and personal planning styles, while also offering information to help you understand why your past efforts to become the world’s best planner might have gone astray. Like most books on time management, this one includes much that you’ve heard before, but if you’re looking to walk away with few new planning tricks, getAbstract recommends this book to you.
