Auckland Business Pulse
- Culture Relaxed, friendly, and professional. Values "kiwi ingenuity".
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. New Zealanders are friendly and informal ("Kiwi style") but expect a high level of professional integrity. Be very mindful of the time difference; early morning in NZ is late afternoon on the US West Coast. Avoid calling late on Friday.
Muscat Business Pulse
- Culture Formal, polite, and relationship-driven. Business is personal and steady.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 12:30 PM. Omanis are known for being exceptionally polite and professional. Relationship building is a critical first step. The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Avoid calling during daily prayer times and during the mid-day heat break.
