Brussels Business Pulse
- Culture International and bureaucratic due to EU presence. Values compromise and multilingualism.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Business here is often international; ensure you know which linguistic community (French/Dutch) your contact belongs to, or use English as the professional bridge. Expect a focus on protocol and consensus.
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.
