Helping Staff Adopt a Shared Booking Calendar

You work in the administrative office of Clearphrase Translation in Thistledell, a town in southwestern Ontario. Your manager, Saira, introduced a shared calendar for booking the office’s two meeting rooms. Several staff members still record meetings only in their personal schedules because they feel the shared calendar adds extra work. This week, two teams arrived at the same room at the same time on three occasions. Saira asks how she can encourage everyone to use the shared calendar.
