I have the delight and privilege of working with global teams. Twice a year we run into a weird bit where day light savings change times. I use the following two locations in Windows to help with planning meetings and trying to be respectful.
Slight variations based on edition of windows. Both are top option.
Scroll down to (near the bottom)
Add Additional Clocks (Windows 10)
Additional Clocks (Windows 11)
You can now add two additional Clocks. Select the time zone and display names.
These clocks show up when you hover over your clock or when you open Notifications Panel
Clock Bonus Tip – Set Time Zone Automatically and Set Time Automatically.
You probably want those both enabled as well. Especially if you ever travel for work or are a Digital Nomad.
Outlook Calendar with multiple Time Zones!
Open Outlook > File (upper right) > Options (bottom left)
Calendar > Time Zones (Down towards the bottom)
Productivity Increases amazaingly.
Outlook Bonus Tip – Book meetings in attendees Time Zones
When creating a new meeting in the Start Time line is a button for Time Zones. Use it and never worry about the miss match in day light savings around the world.
