LISTEN NOW:

In this episode of The Imperative Podcast, Mike interviews Dr. Lon Roberts on the subject of his February 19th presentation to the Fort Worth Human Resources Management Association. The title of his presentation is "Mastering the Art of Multitasting." As Lon points out, multitasking is on the rise in our never-ending quest to "do more with less." While acknowledging that multitasking is here to stay, Lon makes it clear that there is a sane and "insane" way of going about it.

Lon is a Principal Partner with the Texas-based training and consulting firm, Roberts & Roberts Associates. He is the author of four books and numerous articles, including several dealing with multitasking. From his research he also developed a training program on this topic that has been delivered to the U.S. Army and private sector companies.

Lon recently wrote an article for Defense AT&L magazine. The article is titled "Too Busy To Think: Cost, Consequences, and Causes of Multitasking Mania," and you can download a copy of the article below.
