Copenhagen Business Pulse

  • Culture Flat hierarchy and very direct. Values design, green energy, and "Hygge".
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Ideal call window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Danes are famously direct and value their family time; avoid calling after 4:30 PM. The culture is informal and egalitarian; do not worry about titles, but do worry about technical competence and honesty.

Johannesburg Business Pulse

  • Culture Fast-paced and competitive. The economic powerhouse of Africa.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best reached between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM. South African business culture is direct and professional. Be aware of "Load Shedding" (scheduled power outages) which can affect your contact's availability and connectivity; it is a common professional courtesy to check on this.
