Named after Ivy Ledbetter Lee, a renowned productivity consultant and public relations pioneer in the early 20th century, this method was reportedly developed in 1918 when Lee was hired by Charles M. Schwab, the president of Bethlehem Steel Corporation, to improve his executives' efficiency.

The Ivy Lee Method is praised for its simplicity and effectiveness. It forces you to make tough decisions on what's truly important, encourages single-tasking over multi-tasking, and it helps to reduce decision fatigue by having a clear plan of action for the day. This method is not only about getting things done but also about ensuring that you are working on the most valuable tasks, which can lead to greater efficiency and effectiveness in your work.
