Mike Vardy

Mike Vardy is a writer, speaker, and productivity strategist based in Victoria, British Columbia. He created TimeCrafting, an approach to personal productivity built on sustainable practices rather than rigid systems.

His latest book, Productiveness, makes the case for a word we left behind. Productiveness predates productivity by roughly eighty years, and it means the state of being productive rather than the act of producing more. Time is a relationship to tend, not a resource to spend. It follows The Productivity Diet.

He also hosts A Productive Conversation, a podcast about how people meet their time.

A self-described night owl, Mike doesn't believe in one-size-fits-all rules. He believes in finding rhythms that work for you.

When he's not writing, speaking, or teaching, he's usually thinking too long over a cup of coffee or spending time with his family.
