I’ve been on and off YouTube for a long time. I’ve had my Productive! Show back in the day when I was running Productive! Magazine, but I never stuck to it.

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 /michaels/

I’m a huge fan of videos where there are two talking heads and both are the same person. Especially I’m a fan of Pitch Meetings by Ryan George.

Thursday, February 2, 2023 /nozbe16video/

Yesterday I wrote about Nozbe’s 16 anniversary and today I decided to record this on video, to really show you why I’m excited about our Nozbe mission and place in this world - and I hope you’ll share that excitement with me, too:

💼 🎬 Trust is better than control and… performance!

On our Nozbe page about trust I write that control is better than trust should be inverted to: control is good, but trust to do the work is so much better. However, it’s also about performance.
