Hello Phil,

Good question! Actually our team is all located in Europe for now, with less than 1-hour difference between everyone.

That said, in my previous venture I had a large team spread across multiple locations in the US, Europe and India, managing timezone was a nightmare. We did exactly what you mention, we basically applied the Spotify model with timezone co-located teams.

This is where chapter-leader are critical as well as organizing off-sites.
