Synchronization Context

Operating on opposite sides of the clock, these cities have virtually no overlapping business hours. Expect a 24-hour turnaround for most communications.

Jakarta Business Pulse

Culture Collectivist and polite. Respect for elders and social harmony (Gotong Royong) is important.
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (11:30 AM - 1:30 PM on Fridays).
Pro Tip Best call window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. On Fridays, avoid calling between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM due to congregational prayers. Indonesians value "face" and social harmony; avoid being overly blunt or confrontational. Relationship building is a critical first step for any business deal.

Los Angeles Business Pulse

Culture Creative, informal, and networking-heavy. Influenced by the entertainment and tech industries.
Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
Pro Tip Mornings are often spent dealing with East Coast syncs; domestic LA calls are best between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM. The culture is more casual than NYC, but still very results-oriented. Traffic is the ultimate local variable; virtual meetings are the standard for avoiding commute-related delays.
