Follow up to yesterday’s poll: Say you’ve got a daily morning meeting with your team. In your time zone, the meeting falls after whatever time you picked in the previous poll. Then some new people join your team. They work from a different site, in a different time zone. For them, the meeting falls before that time. Assume the time zones are close enough that it’s possible to find a time that’s within everyone’s normal work day, I’m not talking about something like California and India.

Do you:

  • Keep the meeting at the same time it’s always been, and just expect the new team members to show up at that time, even though it’s early for them.
  • Reschedule the meeting so that it’s within normal work hours for everyone.
