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.
Muscat Business Pulse
- Culture Formal, polite, and relationship-driven. Business is personal and steady.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 12:30 PM. Omanis are known for being exceptionally polite and professional. Relationship building is a critical first step. The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Avoid calling during daily prayer times and during the mid-day heat break.
