Synchronization Context

A 5 hours gap allows for a manageable shared window, typically in the morning or late afternoon. It requires some scheduling but supports daily synchronization.

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.

Sao Paulo Business Pulse

  • Culture Warm and relationship-oriented. Personal touch and face-to-face (or video) meetings are preferred over emails.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Mornings can start slowly; the most productive time for calls is between 2:30 PM and 5:00 PM. Avoid scheduling anything critical for Friday afternoon, as many locals begin their weekend travel early. Brazilians value personal warmth; always include a friendly greeting.
