Tuesday TechTip – Multiple Time Zones in Outlook

This week, I’m continuing my series of Tuesday TechTips related to setting up my new laptop at ServiceNow with the hope that as I share how I am productive, it will help you out as well. One thing that I had to account for working for ServiceNow is that everything that is sent out from HQ is sent out referring to Pacific Standard/Date Time. I also have to account for my supervisor being in a different time zone (that changes in relation to mine) as well. Enter multiple time zones in Outlook.

A view of how I use multiple time zones in Outlook.

To access this setting go to File > Options > Calendar > Time zones and you will see this screen.

My current Time zones settings

I worked with folks in the UK, India, & Germany at different points of my tenure in my previous role. To accommodate, I would update my time zone settings based on which team I was working with most commonly.

Hopefully, this tip helps make your life easier, please share with your network if you find this helpful.
