Synchronization Context
Operating on opposite sides of the clock, these cities have virtually no overlapping business hours. Expect a 24-hour turnaround for most communications.
Berlin Business Pulse
- Culture Direct, efficient, and values privacy. Clear separation between work and personal life.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Germans value efficiency and direct communication; do not be offended by a lack of small talk. Respect the strict 9-5 (or 8-4) work day. Calling after 6:00 PM or on weekends is considered a major intrusion into private life.
Sydney Business Pulse
- Culture Relatively relaxed but professional. Early starts are common to maximize daylight.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Due to the significant time difference with Europe and the US, early mornings (8:30 AM - 10:00 AM) are often dedicated to international syncs. For domestic calls, late mornings are best. Be mindful that many Australians start and end their day earlier than their Northern Hemisphere counterparts.
