This is a little response to recent writings and videos where Merlin makes blanket statements about consultants in industries that have their fair share of charlatans yet still have many hard working consultants who actually do provide value to their clients.
Merlin Mann is entirely over-rated and quite derivative of other so-called "productivity experts". Interesting that when it came to completing a book INBOX ZERO, for which he was contracted to write by a publisher, he dropped the ball and quit after 2 years. His usual "motivational talks" he is hired to perform at various companies are clearly easier than writing a book and appease his giant ego much better I think, but I doubt they inform his audience much at all.
