Buenos Aires Business Pulse
- Culture Sophisticated and academic. Expect lively discussions and a focus on design and culture.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Argentines are late starters; do not call before 10:00 AM local time. The most effective window is 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM. Be prepared for passionate, intellectual discussions. Personal rapport is vital, so don't rush through the introductory phase of the call.
Tokyo Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi KΕkan" (business card exchange) are central.
- Lunch Break Strictly 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The most effective window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs. Late afternoon calls (4 PM - 5:30 PM) are also acceptable, but ensure you follow formal protocols and hierarchy if multiple stakeholders are on the line.
