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.
Sydney Business Pulse
- Culture Relatively relaxed but professional. Early starts are common to maximize daylight.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- 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. Be mindful that many Australians start and end their day earlier than their Northern Hemisphere counterparts.
