In this episode Neel and David discuss how timezones affect your remote local business, whether you are traveling for business or pleasure.
David was running his business in Colorado for a few years before deciding to live in Israel for a year, and he was sometimes answering the phone in the middle of the night. Neel wasn’t ever that crazy and brought on someone pretty early to help with calls and even when he did go away, it was to time-compatible Latin America.
They also discuss:
- Stories and challenges working in Europe and Asia with American-based businesses
- The pros and cons of being “in the future” in relation to your team
- The existence of the digital nomad “graveyard shift” in Asia
David also shares his recipe of being purposely less available to his team when he’s abroad to help them develop their autonomy and resilience.
