Is your global team sustainable? A case study in optimizing work-life balance in geo-distributed product teams

09 Sept, 16:30 - 17:00 (UTC) - Main Stage

Enabling the Team
UXDX Community: Building Balanced, Research-Driven Product Teams 2025

Tired of late-night Zoom calls and unproductive meetings? Ready to supercharge your global team's productivity and morale?
We’ve been there. Our team is spread out across the globe, and we were facing similar challenges.
Over the last 4 years, we have used a data-informed and design-first approach to tackle this issue. Through surveys and iterative improvements, we have learned some effective strategies such as

  • Fair meeting schedules: Setting up predictable schedules that balance the needs of teams in different geographies
  • More async: Leveraging smart asynchronous communication tools
  • Clear expectations: Setting guidelines to ensure everyone is on the same page
    By implementing these strategies, our team has experienced significant benefits, both tangible and intangible. Join us for a high-energy session packed with practical tips and real-world examples.
