Are You Culturally Correct?

Thanks to Karen Turner from Turner Efficiency for this awesome tip:

Do you:

  • do business in another country?
  • have family living elsewhere?
  • travel?

Add that country’s holidays to your calendar.

You can even add non-statutory holidays (such as International Women’s Day) or sports calendars.
