Influence Without Authority is the classic guide to getting what you need from people you don't control. Getting things done requires collaboration, and convincing others to contribute requires political skill; this book introduces the Exchange Model, in which you get what you need by offering something of value in return. The key lies in knowing what the other person values - that's their "currency", and it's your immediate tool for coaxing their cooperation. This model has been proven over decades, as organizations around the world have turned toward collaboration.

Dated advice and repetitive ideas
It's dated. I won't keep a note book by my home phone. And I don't need to pay someone to tell me to keep a notebook.
A lot of advice is repeated 2, 3 or 4 times in the book. Is it to compensate for lack of ideas?
Performance of the reader is ok but not spectacular. A little bit on the flat side.
Overall, not worth the price.

Great information!
This is a great book for people looking for new ways to accomplish household tasks for people with ADHD. My recommendation would be to include a downloadable PDF file so one can easily review these ideas when attempting to organize the house. It is cumbersome to take notes to review later and time-consuming to have to listen repeatedly to remember the author's helpful hints.
I would definitely encourage people to listen to this book for some ingenious new ways to get your rooms in order!

I want to love it but I can't
I really wanted to love this but I just can't. Being an adult female with ADHD this couldn't keep my attention for more than a few minutes. When I was actively listening I found the author a bit condescending at times and although she shares that her methods help those with ADHD and her daughter with ADHD you can clearly tell she does not suffer from it herself. I'm not saying that she isn't qualified but you can clearly tell by some of her wording that she doesn't understand it to its full capacity.
You really need to read between the lines with some of her suggestions and take some things she says with a grain of salt. For example, I love to cook and have gadgets and servewear that I don't use on a daily basis. To her I should throw them out because they don't get enough daily use. What happens when I have a large dinner party? Do I now go out and repurchase these items again?
Another example, I don't have a large house nor do I have a lot of storage space. I also don't have much space to create storage. Yes I can declutter and purge but that doesn't make my home any larger. No, I'm not comfortable with being okay with running out of staples and using tissues instead of toilet paper because it's not my day to go to the grocery store...I also have a toddler that wants different types of snacks on different days. While some are staples, they're not always the same.
The only helpful advice I really got from this is to make your organization work for you...

Makes a lullaby feel like heavy metal.
I was looking forward to organizing strategies as a person with ADHD. I am sure somewhere in this book are those strategies.
I'm befuddled how an author, whose audience is an ADHD population, would be so circuitous in her writing. Sleeeeepy from this.
I would love the cliff notes version if anyone has them.
I am sure there is good info but PLEASE chop off the rest.
