Beijing Business Pulse
- Culture Hierarchical and focused on long-term strategy. Government relations often influence business timing.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Ensure your communication follows hierarchical lines—always address the most senior person first. Like Shanghai, avoid calling during the 12-1:30 PM lunch/nap window and major national holidays.
Paris Business Pulse
- Culture Values work-life balance and high-quality debate. Business lunches can be longer than in NYC or London.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Never call between 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM; this "sacred" lunch window is for refueling and relationship building. Tuesday and Thursday mornings are typically the most productive for reaching senior management. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
