Negotiating meeting schedules between time zones can be tricky. Here are two simple methods to help keep track of time in other regions:

Add Additional Time Zone to the Outlook Calendar

1. In Outlook, click File, then select Options. The Outlook Options dialog appears.
2. At left, select Calendar, then scroll down to the Time zones section.
3. In the Label area type a brief description for the local time zone.
4. Check Show a second time zone.
5. In the second Label area, type a brief description for the second time zone.
6. Select additional time zone from the second Time zone drop down.
7. OK.

To Add Time zones to Windows Taskbar 

The windows taskbar has the ability to show two additional time zones.

1. RIGHT + CLICK on time displayed in lower right corner of taskbar.
2. Select Adjust date/time.
3. Click Additional Clocks tab.
4. Check Show this clock.
5. For each additional time zone, check Show this clock, select time zone from the drop-down, then enter a name in the field below.
6. OK.

 

For additional multi-regional scheduling resources, visit the World Clock website. There you will find meeting calculators, daylight savings information and interactive maps.
