Bogota Business Pulse
- Culture Formal and polite. Small talk and personal connection are expected.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Colombians are exceptionally polite and formal ("Usted" is common). Punctuality is increasingly important in big cities like Bogota. Always start with a friendly inquiry about their wellbeing and family before the agenda.
Dubai Business Pulse
- Culture International and multicultural. Sunday is a standard working day, while Friday is often a half-day or holiday.
- Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The traditional UAE work week is Monday to Friday, but many local businesses and government entities may have shorter hours on Fridays (ending around 12:00 PM). Sunday is no longer a weekend for most, but always verify your contact's specific schedule as multicultural teams vary.
