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.

Toronto Business Pulse

  • Culture Multicultural, polite, and professional. Similar to NYC but generally more reserved.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Canadians value punctuality and a polite, reserved professional tone. It is similar to NYC but with slightly more emphasis on consensus and less on aggressive directness. Avoid calling after 4:30 PM when the work day is concluding.
