Healthier work culture is here
It’s OK to be unavailable. Asynchronous work means you’re not expected to answer emails or Slack messages immediately. But how do you collaborate with others, then? Here's how to stay aligned with your team without sacrificing focus time.
Master written communication
Many of your meetings could be emails. But first, you need to write a clear and effective message. The built-in AI assistant in Canary Mail can do it for you.
Need some writing help in other tools like Slack or Google Docs? Elephas works across all your apps and helps you rewrite and proofread the text or continue where you left off.
Make the remaining meetings count
Asynchronous work doesn’t mean you should cancel all meetings. But you can make them more effective. iMeetingX lets you add objectives and agendas to every meeting as well as jot down notes and action items once you're on the call.
We also recommend installing In Your Face to have all your meetings in one schedule, in the menu bar. This app is also great for diving into deep work without missing out. When it's time to jump on a call, In Your Face shows you a full-screen alert that's impossible to miss.
Communicate across time zones
Not sure when's the best time to reach out to your remote colleague? Dato lets you time travel to your teammates' locations, right from the menu bar.
Prefer a more classic look and feel? Give World Clock Pro a try.
Cut out distractions
There's always a temptation to check those new Slack messages — avoid it with Serenity. It lets you quickly mute notification sounds for selected apps to enjoy some calm.
Moreover, the Total Serenity feature mutes all sounds, even call rings. You're in an asynchronous mode, after all!
