What Are UnOffice Hours?
Matt Webb created the UnOffice Hours concept in September 2020. His philosophy behind it was:
I loved those open conversations over coffee in the Before Times. There’s an ostensible reason to connect, so you talk about work, or compare notes about an idea, or whatever. But then the unexpected emerges. (Sometimes you have to hunt for it.)
There are things in your head that you only know are there when you say them. And there are encounters with new ideas and new perspectives. 1:1 conversation is a vital part of my process in finding work, but also simply in thinking.
But with us all going remote in a giant forced experiment, I wasn’t getting that input. Could it work over Zoom? It turns out it can.
Almost five years on, at the time of writing this, it's been a success! He's had over 400 calls with fascinating people.
How Does It Work?
- Click on my calendar link to book a time. My current time zone is UTC+3/GMT+3.
- You'll need to let me know what calling platform you prefer and whether you're comfortable with a video call, or would prefer just audio. I don't mind either way.
- If no listed times work, please email me: hi@zacharykai.net or use the form below. My schedule is flexible!
Looking forward to talking to you!
What Could We Talk About?
Great question! Here are some ideas:
- Any interests we might have in common
- Discuss something I've written.
- General life catchup
- If you'd like to hire me and you have questions (here's my resume and CV.)
- The indie publishing industry.
- The workshops I run
- Ways we could work together.
- Zine-making and my zines (I'd love to trade!)
And don't worry if those don't fit! I like to think of myself as an interested, friendly soul, and I like meeting folk. So go on, introduce yourself!
Plus, don't think of this as a one time thing! If I know you, or we meet and get along/have something in common, please book again. I'd love to catch up/stay in touch.
