How This Pair Actually Operates
Calgary and Hong Kong operate on opposite sides of the workday, so forcing live meetings usually creates more fatigue than clarity.
Design the workflow around written handoffs, explicit SLAs, and a narrow exception path for urgent live calls.

Documented transfer lanes
This pair becomes useful when the handoff template, ETA, and response expectation are standardized.
