Does your boss expect you to reply immediately?

I found a video in my archives that I had recorded but
hadn’t posted it up yet. I think you’ll enjoy this.

I was speaking on location at beautiful Santa Clara
University, when an audience member from a major
corporation asked me: “I have a boss in Hong Kong who
has this expectation that I always respond immediately
to her requests. What do I do?”

She asked the question because I was preaching the
importance of moving from a Culture of Now (which
perpetuates switchtasking)to a Culture of WHEN.

Do you have a demanding boss like this? (Or are YOU the
demanding boss?) How do you handle the situation?

Watch this video for some quick, invaluable tips.

Switchtask no more!

P.S. After you watch the video I’d like you to share
your experience. Have you tried the tips I’m
suggesting? Are you too scared to try it? Why?

P.P.S. Expect more videos like this from me this year.
I’m committed in 2010 to just give away a lot more
content. Less selling, more giving. Watch for it.

Watch out Coloradoans! If you try to switchtask by texting while driving, you’ll now get a hefty ticket. Just one more clue that people are beginning to get wise to the myth of multitasking!

Woah! I just saw this.

The English edition of The Myth of Multitasking: How ‘Doing It All’ Gets Nothing Done is on sale right now at Amazon.com for about 50% off. That’s only $10 bucks for a $20 book. That’s better than I can buy them for direct from my publisher!

Seriously. I just bought a ton of copies for my own use!

I’m not sure why they did this, but I’d jump to Amazon right now while this pricing lasts:

For my friends who speak Italian, here is an article about the Italian translation of my book The Myth of Multitasking entitled: “Una cosa per volta. Quando fare tutto è come fare niente”
