Boston RoadMapping...
Fabulously fun GTD RoadMap seminar today - 200 people showed up here at the Copley Marriott in Boston! Lots of old timers coming back to refresh and invigorate, plus lots of new-to-the-game players.
Great Boston seminar today...
And what a great crew almost in the front row... from one of our favorite artistic/cultural enterprises on the planet - Cirque du Soleil! Turns out one of them got the GTD bug a while ago, and it's spreading in their culture. Had five of them come down to Boston from Montreal headquarters. They're big fans, want to get us into their culture. How cool.
Cirque du Soleil GTDers(and me)!

I sat just in front of the group from Cirque du Soleil. I suspect that they would be pleased to see a French version of the GTD book. Moi, aussi. (Me, too.) Any plans for that?

David,
Nice to get a refresher on GTD. As an Alum from your course in 1995, I found the info and concepts familiar and am excited to "sharpen the saw."
As an FYI on Cirque, there's an excellent article from HBR on them, titled The Blue Ocean Strategy. It talks about how they have transformed entertainment as we know it from the circus, into a whole new realm and changed the game in the face of declining circus attendance. Needless to say, their act speaks for itself. I had the good fortune to meet with them at the Boston seminar. Great people!
