The Time Advantage Book

Author John W Hall had four major design objectives in mind for the book.

Firstly the book should have a high value. There are lots of inspirational techniques here,many more than you might find in other books. The hero of the story visits ten professors so essentially you have ten books in one.

Secondly, the book needed to be practical.  By having our hero, a practical working manager, visit and challenge some professors, you get a reality check as you go along.  In this way, I hope that readers will gain more practical benefit than just reading academically about a time technique.  The hero makes action points at the end of each of his visits, and discusses some of the learning with a friend of his. All this makes for a more practical transfer of knowledge.

Thirdly, I wanted the book to be enjoyable.  It has to be a positive experience, both in learning and in the style. Managers are too busy to pick up a boring book. Hence this book is in the form of a story with mysteries, puzzles, and surprises that make it memorable and unforgettable.  At the end of every chapter there are momentum builders to take you to the next chapter.

Fourthly, I wanted the book to provoke discussion amongst readers. Discussion will help learning and comparisons. You will have to read the book to find out how I have achieved this, but if you can find other readers, or you give one as a present to someone you would like to have a discussion with, then I'm sure you'll find lots to discuss.
