Mike Williams

Mike Williams is a speaker, author, executive, and coach who helps leaders obtain small wins with a big impact on their lives and businesses. He gives people the actionable tools to succeed on their terms with less effort AND be at the top of their game in all areas of life.

Through his leadership roles with General Electric, The David Allen Company, and Zappos, Mike kept noticing that people were desperate for a better path to productivity to help them fight digital distractions, mind clutter, and wasteful uses of their time. But the only resources available involved complex approaches, reading thick self-help books, or participating in boring seminars. He knew a better way existed—one rooted in simplicity and realism. So in his pursuit, he spent two decades working with thousands of people across different industries--from rocket scientists to students to nonprofit organizations.

Today, Mike assists clients using an effective coaching methodology that’s far from complicated. He also used what works to create Doing to Done—Productivity Made Simple, Illustrated for Busy People Like Us, a visually engaging book about quick wins with significant impacts. Bringing a bit of Southern California energy to his work, he firmly believes that managing stress through better productivity shouldn’t be so stressful.

This book is brilliant. The art is amazing. I want to buy copies for
everyone in my company.

COO of Instrumart
★★★★★

I’ve practiced some amazing productivity methodologies, and most have three problems: too complex, too wordy, and lame AF. Doing to Done works. It’s simple, visual, fun, and engaging. His system will change your life and help you be the best version of YOU, if you let it.

It has 95% of everything I've been discovering all in one book.

For years, I've scoured blog sites, podcasts, and video courses to gather up all the hints and tips I could find to improve my daily and weekly reviews. I had to search high and low and spent a lot of screen time gathering it all up. Like a game of Tetris, I had to figure out what hints to keep and what to set aside. Thankfully, this book has done it all for me. I've been doing a lot of the tidbits that are included in this book and I'm happy to no longer need to look for any more productivity books.The tip about beats was the final puzzle piece that I was trying to figure out and it was succinctly explained here.

I can start tossing out a lot of collected blog posts from my "Read Later" list and just look here. It works well with my OmniFocus setup. I've always been an advocate of creating a system first and then finding an app that can fit the system. Thanks for all the work and the easy to read format.

My Personal Kanban

Doing to Done is a great reminder to keep it simple, keep it focused. Juggling too many balls means something will drop when you least expect it. I've been a Kanban-style project manager, but never thought about how I could manage my own life (work and pleasure) until I read Doing to Done. Great advice, simply stated.

Easy to use and apply Productivity tips , I highly recommend this book!

Doing to Done has actionable tips you can apply right away. One of the best aspects of the book was it was simple to read and digest, you can go through the book in one sitting and start applying what you learned right away. Mike does not bog the reader down with endless chapters but, simple to read and digest concepts. This is the type of productivity book you read and keep on your desk for quick reference. This book is an excellent starting point to improve your productivity. I highly recommend it to anyone!
