Stop Doing Math Before Meetings: The Ultimate Guide to Managing Global Time Zones
Mental gymnastics to figure out what time it is in Tokyo? You're doing it wrong. Here's why your team needs a visual time zone board, not a calculator. -
Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM in Buenos Aires is 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Oslo.
8:00 AM to 1:00 PM in Buenos Aires is when Oslo is also working, at 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM their time. You've got a decent 5-hour window. Set a recurring time near 8:00 AM in Buenos Aires (1:00 PM in Oslo) and stick to it. Heads up: because Oslo changes its clocks and Buenos Aires doesn't, the difference moves by an hour twice a year. Confirm the overlap around the DST switch.
