David Allen is a productivity consultant and author best known for his book Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity. He is the creator of the "Getting Things Done" (GTD) methodology, a widely-used time management system focused on organizing tasks, reducing stress, and increasing personal and professional productivity.

The GTD system emphasizes the importance of capturing all tasks, commitments, and ideas in a trusted system (such as a to-do list or app), breaking them into actionable steps, and regularly reviewing and updating the system to maintain clarity and focus.
