In this book about time management, the authors point out that selfishness and focus on self has been a major flaw in time management books for the last four generations. They propose a new way to manage time (which they call “the fifth generation”), which makes considering others part of the plan. The authors claim that sharing-living-balancing our time with others will result in a fuller life with greater happiness and opportunities. The authors divide the plan into twenty-eight steps, and readers can read one chapter each day. The three authors are: Dr. Jörg W. Knoblauch, a German professor whose company, Tempus, is well-known for books on time and corporate management in Europe; Johannes Hüger, a German who has spent years on management consulting and training; and Marcus Mockler, a German journalist who also provides training on corporate and career planning.
