Chicago and Warsaw have a 7-hour time difference. For remote teams, there are 2 working hours of daily overlap in standard schedules (9–18).

The best meeting window is 09:00–10:00 Chicago time (16:00–17:00 Warsaw time).

The 2-hour overlap is a narrow but valuable window — reserve it for critical decisions and blockers. Outside of it, async-first processes keep work flowing: structured tickets, recorded walkthroughs, and clear written context.

Warsaw opens the workday first, 7 hours ahead of Chicago. A common pattern: Chicago starts with async context from Warsaw, the overlap window handles live decisions, and Warsaw closes with a clear handoff for Chicago to act on overnight.
