Respect time zones and work hours
When teams are spread across different geographical areas, the overlap in working hours might be limited. Be mindful of this and don’t expect team members to be available around the clock just because technology makes it possible.
Instead, encourage employees to work within their local work hours to ensure their well-being and reduce burnout. It shows that you value their personal time and commitments outside of work, which can boost morale and increase job satisfaction.
For collaboration across time zones, plan meetings during overlapping work hours and use asynchronous communication methods like email or project management tools for updates that don't require immediate responses.
