Sydney Business Pulse
- Culture Relatively relaxed but professional. Early starts are common to maximize daylight.

- Pro Tip Due to the significant time difference with Europe and the US, early mornings (8:30 AM - 10:00 AM) are often dedicated to international syncs. For domestic calls, late mornings are best.
