Reviews

[Nilendu Misra · Rating 5 out of 5]

Yet another useful, concise hit from Krogerus and co. How communicating for work from home is like listening to music with noise-cancelling headphones vs that in office is like talking in a lounge - bursty vs normal; how prototypes must be rapid, rough and right, to explaining Pomodoro technique in under 5 minutes, and difference between pigeon-holing and compartmentalizing - a short hour with this book is better than a semester long course on productivity. Gem!

Short, to the point, applicable. Summary of many strategies.

Unfortunately must give them the credit since they did in fact write a book

Quick, easy read, kind of all other the place but I think that’s okay. A good thing to reference
