Your Task. To broaden your knowledge of time zones, respond to the following:
a. What does the abbreviation UTC indicate? (Use Google and search for UTC definition.)
b. Internationally, time is shown with a 24-hour clock (sometimes called “military time”). What time does 13:00 indicate? (Use Google; search for 24-hour clock.) How is a 12-hour clock different from a 24-hour clock? With which are you most familiar?
c. You must schedule an audioconference for a businessperson in Indianapolis, Indiana, who wants to talk with a person in Osaka, Japan. What are the best business hours (between 8 and 5) for them to talk? (Many Web sites provide time zone converters. For example, try http://www.timeanddate.com. Click Meeting Planner. Follow the instructions for selecting a day and locations.)
d. What are the best business hours for an online chat between an executive in Atlanta and a vendor in Singapore?
e. When is a businessperson in Arizona most likely to reach a contact in Belgium on Skype during office hours? Your instructor may select other cities for you to search
