Enriched Operating Guide
Baghdad runs 1 hour behind Tbilisi. The recommended overlap band is 09:00–16:00 Baghdad time, which maps to 10:00–17:00 Tbilisi time — a 7-hour window that puts both cities inside standard business hours simultaneously. The call-score for this pair is 1.8/10, reflecting the impact of a lunch-conflict modifier and the etiquette-sensitive nature of the pairing. Live collaboration is feasible within the nominal 09:00–16:00 band, but coverage tier C limits the available secondary scheduling signals for this pair.
Overlap And Burden
The overlap window is 09:00–16:00 Baghdad time, which corresponds to 10:00–17:00 Tbilisi time. The lunch-conflict modifier indicates that the cleanest live band overlaps a lunch period for both cities, so the nominal overlap is more fragile than the raw 7-hour window suggests. The burden summary states that the compromise window is relatively balanced between Baghdad and Tbilisi, but the etiquette-sensitive modifier means that who absorbs the real scheduling cost depends on how each team handles relationship norms and punctuality expectations.
Meeting Recommendation
Best window: 09:00–16:00 Baghdad / 10:00–17:00 Tbilisi on weekdays. Avoid early Mondays before 09:00 Baghdad time — Tbilisi may not be at full capacity yet. Given the etiquette-sensitive modifier, lead with relationship-building sequences and clear pre-meeting briefs; this reduces the risk that the live window collapses under local norm friction.

Baghdad and Tbilisi still share most of the workday, so fast live alignment is practical without forcing one side into repeated after-hours calls.
