Managing a Global Remote Team? see how well Rotaville can work for you.



Global Team Rota ( transcript )

Hello, managing the schedule for a globally remote and distributed team is really easy using ShiftApp.

In this short video, I'll show you some examples.

Global timezones and seasons can make it difficult to always accurately communicate times for shifts, meetings, and other events.

However, ShiftApp makes this easy, because each team member, or employee, sees all shift times presented in their own chosen time zone.

They see these local times on their ShiftApp home page,

the schedule view,

and on the ShiftApp mobile app. And in emails, PDF Reports, and calendar feeds.

Employees can register their availability in their local times.

And Remote Managers see this information automatically translated to their own timezone.

ShiftApp automatically handles all timezone translations, including multi-region adjustments for daylight savings time transitions.

Global remote teams often need a 24-by-7 schedule to help manage and ensure continuous staffing.

Including for a Call Centre schedule,

a Social Media Help Desk schedule,

a Inbound Sales schedule,

a follow-the-sun Global Tech Support schedule,

or an on-call management escalation schedule.

ShiftApp makes it easy to create a 24-by-7 schedule featuring 8 hour shifts,

or 12-hour shifts,

or 24-hour shifts, or, any shift pattern your business needs.

Coverage count indicators can be used to help you ensure you have the staff coverage your business needs during the hours you need it.

Shifts can be set to repeat automatically.

Employees can be color coded, perhaps to help identify their timezone, or their role.

Employee names can be changed to include their location, or other information, to help when planning the schedule.

Overall, you can see how easy and useful ShiftApp Schedule Software is for managing a global remote team and their around-the-clock around-the-world shifts.
