Consolidate All Your Tasks in Notion

Getting an overall view of your tasks can help you and your team see the bigger picture.

Notion has become one of my favorite tools for managing my projects and documentation. It’s super customizable, which is probably why certain options from other project management tools are not there by default.

Being a cross-functional team member at a startup means I have a lot of overlap between projects. Without the ability to have an overview of my tasks is painful because this means switching between projects manually and remembering all the details like due dates and comments.

Below are a two ways that I discovered to create overviews of either my own tasks or my whole team’s within Notion.

Note: This tutorial is mainly geared towards people who have used Notion at least a few times and understand the basics of how the application works. Don’t worry about the word database used throughout, it sounds scary, but it’s really just a place where tasks and content are held.

Option 1: Link Existent Databases

Best For: Teams that have countless tasks across existent projects and don’t have the time to transfer them over to a brand new database. This is the one I currently use.
