Dar es Salaam Business Pulse
- Culture Professional but values social harmony and hospitality.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 10:00 AM and 12:30 PM. Business is polite and values social harmony. A few words in Swahili (like "Habari") go a long way in building rapport. Take time for personal greetings before starting the business agenda. Punctuality is appreciated but can be fluid.
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.
