How This Pair Actually Operates

Kandy and Wellington 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.

Operating mode
Async by default

Live meetings are the exception path here. The operational default should be a documented handoff with a clearly named next owner.`

Meeting cadence
Recurring rule

Use a small escalation slot and treat the rest of the operating model as async handoff-driven.

What This Pair Is Best For

Escalation-only calls

Use live calls only for incidents, customer risk, or approval deadlines that genuinely justify waking one side outside normal hours.

Documented transfer lanes

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

  1. Check the current clocks. Review the live Kandy and Wellington clocks to confirm the real offset and DST state right now.
  2. Inspect the overlap band. Use the dashboard slider to test the 09:00 to 11:00 Kandy window before you promise a recurring slot.
