How to make the boss happy using RTM

dennis.tarwood says:
I track all the action items important to me in RTM. Many of them are important to my boss, too, and require his input during a weekly meeting. That made my to-do list unmanageable once a week, full of today's tasks and weekly discussion tasks with only my memory to separate the two.

Therefore, I tag everything that requires his input with his name. I also created two smart lists: "[Boss]" and "Not [Boss]", both searching the Work list.

Now I use those two smart lists once a week to know what I need to do on Boss Meeting Day that doesn't need him to weigh in, keeping me productive before and after that meeting.

You might give David Allen (inventor of the Getting Things Done method) a Pro account as well... ;)
