Synchronization Context

A 5 hours gap allows for a manageable shared window, typically in the morning or late afternoon. It requires some scheduling but supports daily synchronization.

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.

Singapore Business Pulse

  • Culture Efficiency-driven and highly professional. A major global hub for finance and tech.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Aim for 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM for maximum focus. Late afternoon (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) is the ideal time to synchronize if you are calling from Europe or the Middle East. Singaporeans are highly punctual and expect the same from their international partners.
