Google Calendar setup

Enable “Working Hours”

At MUI, we avoid as much as possible ad-hoc meetings, however, there is still the need to create new ones, e.g. for a new recurring event, or Donut calls. Because we work from different timezones and have differing schedules, new events need to be scheduled on timeslots where all the attendees are available, therefore, we recommend enabling the “Working Hours” feature to help:

Timezone

Per Timezones, you can configure a secondary timezone:

We don’t use a dedicated calendar per team because Google Calendar sends notifications to groups, it breaks with Event guests.
