Bangkok Business Pulse
- Culture Respectful and hierarchical. The "Sanuk" principle (fun) means keeping a positive and calm atmosphere.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Always maintain a calm, polite tone ("Jai Yen"). Showing anger or impatience ("Jai Rorn") will lead to a loss of respect. Use the "Wai" (traditional greeting) if on video, and always address people with the polite title "Khun".
San Diego Business Pulse
- Culture Professional, casual, and focused on biotech and innovation.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Like much of the US West Coast, the culture is casual-professional. Biotech and defense are major industries; expect technical competence to be highly valued. Punctuality is respected, even in a more relaxed atmosphere.
