The 1h offset between London and Stockholm is not just a number — it reshapes the entire rhythm of collaboration. Stockholm clocks out while London is still at lunch. Teams that don't plan this deliberately spend their overlap on firefighting instead of actual work.

The 7h overlap window runs at the edge of both teams' days. For London's side it's a late-morning meeting; for Stockholm it's early afternoon. Neither is painful, which is exactly why it works. Anchor your recurring sync here and treat the rest of the day as async territory.

For any recurring sync between London and Stockholm, set the calendar invite in one canonical timezone and confirm the other side sees the correct local time. DST transitions can silently shift the effective meeting time by an hour for several weeks without either party noticing until someone is waiting alone on the call.

Add the rest of your team above and the planner scales to everyone at once. A three-city team spanning London, Stockholm, and a third timezone often has less overlap than any two-city pair in isolation — surfacing that constraint early prevents scheduling that works on paper but burns people out in practice.

Daylight saving time: Both London and Stockholm switch clocks on the same dates (March 29 and October 25), so the 1h gap is constant year-round.
