Synchronization Context
A 2 hours 30 minutes gap allows for a manageable shared window, typically in the morning or late afternoon. It requires some scheduling but supports daily synchronization.
Delhi Business Pulse
- Culture Professional and hierarchical with a strong emphasis on relationship-building and networking.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Plan calls for 11:00 AM or later, as many offices fully ramp up after the morning commute. Traffic frequently delays schedules, so expect a 5-15 minute "buffer" in meeting start times. Relationship building is crucial; spend a few minutes on personal rapport before starting the agenda.
Shanghai Business Pulse
- Culture Highly competitive and fast-paced. Business is often conducted with a mix of modern efficiency and traditional "Guanxi" (relationships).
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (Nap time is common).
- Pro Tip Respect the 12-1 PM lunch and rest window; lights are often dimmed in offices for naps. The best time to call is between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Avoid calling during major public holidays like Golden Week or Lunar New Year, as business comes to a complete halt.
