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.
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.
