The Myth of Multitasking

How "Doing It All" Gets Nothing Done

Author: Dave Crenshaw
ISBN: 9780470372258

There is an illusion that technology, cell phones, e-mail, faxes, text messaging and whatever is latest-and-greatest all make us more productive. The reality, though, is that these things will only make us productive if we take control of them. If we do not protect our time, we will allow ourselves to be run over by the traffic of information. Executives and employees everywhere are lost in a morass of their own making, a false belief that they can and should do more with less time. The irony is that in “doing it all”, they are getting less done.
