How This Pair Actually Operates
Bogota and Dubai only have a thin live relay window, so most progress depends on explicit ownership transfer rather than long meetings.
Use live overlap for escalations and approvals, then hand work across the day boundary with clear next-seen expectations.
Live meetings are the exception path here. The operational default should be a documented handoff with a clearly named next owner.`
Use a small escalation slot and treat the rest of the operating model as async handoff-driven.

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

- 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.
