I’m Prasanth Nair and I built the Stack Method in 2004 to deal with my own overwhelm. Email was killing my productivity and stressing me out. I needed a better way.
Over the years our team at Double Gemini has taught thousands of people across the world how to Stack through our executive and corporate training programs. People at AMC Networks, the ACLU, Dropbox, Walmart, JetBlue, New York & Company, WorldFirst, Day Pitney and others have learned and benefited from Stacking.
As a team, we wanted to offer Stack for free to expand its reach so more individuals could benefit. Corporate clients are still able to engage us for team training and our other productivity consulting and training services.
We’re Double Gemini. We believe productive people do better things for themselves, their organizations, their communities, and the world at large. We offer a wide range of productivity consulting and training services. Visit us at www.doublegemini.com to learn more.
