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. -
Keep meetings inside 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Buenos Aires — that maps to 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM in Washington, D.C.. With 9 hours of daily overlap, these two cities are an easy pairing; almost any reasonable hour works. Remember that Washington, D.C. shifts for daylight saving and Buenos Aires doesn't, so recalculate the overlap after each clock change. To edit hours, add more timezones, and share with your team, create a free collaborative board.
