In smaller companies (where C-level doesn't exist) this works similarly where directors/owners just have to deal with stuff outside of normal hours because somebody has to. Just because they do and have skin in the game, doesn't mean they expect the employees to respond to anything.

Slack helped a lot by making scheduling messages for the next day really simple and not notifying out of hours by default. Outlook could really improve its UX around that functionality - you can schedule messages right now, but it's pretty much hidden.

I know at least one senior level exec that uses that feature. I had never heard of it before (and I use outlook).
