Hello, I’m Michael Sliwinski, founder of Nozbe - to-do app for business owners and their teams. I write essays, books, work on projects and I podcast for you using #iPadOnly in #NoOffice as I believe that work is not a place you go to, it’s a thing you do.

🎥 Vlog

My ‘Team Productivity Show’ video blog where I share my best team productivity tips and tricks. Now on a new YouTube channel called @MichaelTeam. My previous show was hosted on Nozbe blog, on Nozbe’s YouTube channel and as audio on Apple Podcasts.


🎥 Team Productivity Podcast re-started with NotebookLM!

Wednesday, October 23, 2024 /notebooklm/

I’ve officially joined the AI craze and finally started testing many AI tools consistently. One of them is NotebookLM which lets you create “notebooks” where you feed it with documents, sources, data and it summarizes things for you or answers your questions… or creates a podcast! Now, that last bit is really interesting and I’m using it now to publish a podcast based off of my writing:

🎥 🏝 🎬 ⭐️ Impromptu coffee meetings in a remote team? Two Michaels argue!

Monday, June 17, 2024 /coffee/

After “interrupting with meetings” it’s time for the second video of Two Michaels arguing. This time we discuss a common myth that when working remotely you cannot create spontaneous or impromptu conversations. Let me know what you think:


🎥 🎬 ⭐️ 12 new shorts: health, donating blood, core values, lego and my several takes on meetings!

I’ve been busy with my New YouTube Channel over the last month and since my 10 first videos and videos about Taiwan I’ve posted more short takes and a long video about meetings. Here are my recent 12 shorts (each is less than 1 minute, so check them out!):

🎥 🎬 💌 ⭐️ 3 meetings per week or less?… - how two Michaels argue about managing people

Thursday, April 18, 2024 /meetings/

Finally decided to record a long-form video on my new YouTube channel featuring two Michaels arguing about meetings. Here’s the video and full script below. Do you also agree that meetings should be regular, optional and well prepared? just like we do at Nozbe?


🎥 ✈️ 🎬 ⭐️ Productivity videos from Taiwan

Monday, April 15, 2024 /taiwan/

I’ve just come back home from a trip to Taiwan 🇹🇼 where I’ve had lots of great experiences, met my co-worker Emilia and experienced a major earthquake. What’s really important is that I’ve learned a lot during this trip, especially that it was to such an efficient-running and well-organized place like Taiwan. Here are a few shorts I recorded and published my new @MichaelTeam YouTube Channel during this trip:

🎥 🎬 ⭐️ Subscribe to my new “Michael Team” YouTube Channel for daily productivity tips and tricks - my first 10 videos!

Tuesday, March 12, 2024 /channel/

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. Our official Nozbe YouTube Channel is OK, but my team finally convinced me to try posting “Shorts/Reels” on both my Instagram and my new @MichaelTeam YouTube Channel and after more than a week here are the 10 videos I posted (and first comes the channel trailer):


💼 ✅ 🎥 🎬 Two Michaels walk into an office… and argue if virtual meetings are real!

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. That’s why as I started my new @MichaelTeam YouTube Channel I wanted to try it out myself and finally yesterday as I had my favorite “Design Fight” meeting with my Nozbe team I decided to take this opportunity and try it out:

🎬 🎥 Task-based communication as the future of team productivity! - Team Productivity Show #13

Wednesday, December 1, 2021 /tasks/

Even though I covered the concept of task-based communication in my vlog #5 I decided to record a new video that is shorter and easier for people to understand - how to really communicate through tasks. Let me know if I made it clearer for you all:


🍎 🎬 🎥 Trying out YouTube #shorts with: Apple won’t unleash!

Tuesday, November 16, 2021 /shorts-apple/

One of our strategies for promoting Nozbe indirectly is by promoting our Nozbe.Com YouTube Channel - where we post Nozbe product videos, No Office podcast episodes and shorter productivity videos. We have above 4000 subscribers there (and you should totally subscribe!). Last week we decided to try the new YouTube feature - shorts, and here’s my first short commenting on Apple’s MacBook Pro event and my essay on Apple’s reluctance to embrace #NoOffice work:
