Istanbul Business Pulse

  • Culture A bridge between East and West. Business is personal, and hospitality (tea/coffee) is a prerequisite.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Aim for calls between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Turkish business culture is highly relational; starting with "Nasılsınız?" (How are you?) and building rapport is essential. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.

Kathmandu Business Pulse

  • Culture Traditional, relationship-oriented, and moves at a steady, hospitable pace.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Nepalese business culture values personal trust and social rapport. Take time for polite greetings before business. Be patient with potential connectivity issues and have a backup plan. A warm, respectful, and patient tone is most effective.
