The New Time Manager

Angela Victoria Woodhull Β· 1997
88/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Woodhull's 1997 guide tackles time management as both a personal discipline and a relational skill, covering prioritization, communication, and giving useful feedback as interconnected parts of a productive professional life. The relational angle β€” that managing your time well also means managing your interactions β€” is genuinely useful and distinguishes it from pure task-list books. The honest caveat is significant: this was published before smartphones, remote work, or digital distraction existed at any meaningful scale, so the specific tactics feel dated. Reception data is also sparse, making it hard to gauge how well it has held up. Worth a look if you find a copy, but there are more current options for most readers.
