I'm a night owl C-suite (CTO), but with all of my peers as you describe.

It's possible to make it work, you have to be very firm on your boundaries. One option that worked for me was to explain that I can effectively do more timezone coverage despite being in the same Geo-zone.

It also helped to showcase the work I do while they are offline, so when they wake up they see a column of work that has been bounced back across to their plate.

It is definitely hard though, and takes the right crowd who respects you enough to make it work.

It's probably impossible to do this as a CEO though.
