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".
Seattle Business Pulse
- Culture Tech-heavy, casual, and values innovation and nature.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Expect a casual professional environment (lots of tech-casual wear). Networking often happens over coffee; many locals are flexible with virtual meeting times but value their time in nature, so avoid late evening or weekend intrusions.
