Synchronization Context

Syncing between Athens and Beijing is challenging due to the 6 hours offset. Teams should prioritize asynchronous communication or specific 'handover' windows.

Athens Business Pulse

Culture Sociable and relationship-heavy. Business often involves lively discussion.
Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
Pro Tip The best window for calls is 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM. Avoid calling between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM (the "siesta" or lunch period). Greeks value personal rapport and hospitality; business deals are often sealed over long meals or social gatherings. Be prepared for a warm and expressive communication style.

Beijing Business Pulse

Culture Hierarchical and focused on long-term strategy. Government relations often influence business timing.
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Ensure your communication follows hierarchical lines—always address the most senior person first. Like Shanghai, avoid calling during the 12-1:30 PM lunch/nap window and major national holidays.
